Edinburgh Office Market Dynamics, Q4 2025

Annual take-up reached a modest 500,600 sq.ft. and fell well below the five and 10-year averages.

Edinburgh has the lowest Grade A vacancy rate of all the Big 6 markets and, despite one retrofit starting on site in the city centre, there will continue to be a diminishing supply of good quality space over the short to medium-term.

Prime rents increased to £47.50 per sq.ft. in Q4 with further growth forecast for 2026.
