The changing dynamics of the real estate market in developed economies demands a new approach to the nature and delivery of professional research and consulting services. The manifestations of change are the growing competition for ‘space’, the demand for flexible multi-functional uses and for innovatory forms of stakeholder partnerships. Overlaying these developments is the increasing integration of the real estate market at the European scale. Developers, the construction industry, investment institutions and the public sector alike now require comprehensive, integrated research and consultancy which goes beyond transaction-based services.

Expertise 
ECORYS can provide a full range of research, market intelligence, economic and legal advice and stakeholder communication support. We combine this expertise with an in depth knowledge of real estate sub-markets — office, housing, leisure, retail, industrial and commercial. We draw also on ‘in house’ expertise in labour market analysis, consumer preferences, mobility requirements and environmental issues. We can also assist in providing project management services from identification of investment opportunities to implementation, contract management and stakeholder communications. Our geographical reach is European in scale.
