“After several years of moderate newbuild activity, and with break-even rents for newbuilds currently below market rents, new supply will be limited in the years to come. The positive outlook for office demand, combined with a restrained supply side, support expectations of continued market rental growth. Entra’s portfolio is well positioned to capitalise on this market rental growth in the years to come.”

“Project development Typically, the company has had 5-10 per cent of its portfolio in project development. Project development has been brought down over the last years as current market rents are below required break-even rents needed to initiate newbuild projects.
