CBRE UK

Capital 8 in Paris has changed hands in one of the most significant office transactions in Europe in recent years, the largest single-asset office deal in Continental Europe since 2022. The transaction reaffirms our conviction that prime assets in the most desirable locations continue to outperform through market cycles. Despite the challenging macro environment earlier in the year, Continental European office investment volumes are up 18% year-to-date, marking the third consecutive year of growth. The outlook for the sector is increasingly positive, supported by strong fundamentals, deepening pools of capital and returning investor confidence across the risk spectrum. It has been a privilege to advise Invesco Real Estate on this landmark transaction, and a pleasure to work alongside the Invesco team and the other advisors on the deal, including Rothschild & Co - Global Advisory as joint financial advisor, Linklaters , Baker McKenzie and Deloitte. Finally, a huge thank you to the CBRE teams for the excellent execution, especially: Viktoria Lindvall, Nicolas Verdillon, Vincent Vernier, Emmanuel Beaussier, David Tran , Aina Vilalta Vila and William Donners
