Structure

Romanian double-net structure (tenant pays operating costs and property tax). 5-7 year terms standard. Rents typically quoted in EUR. Rent-free of 8-12 months on 5-year terms plus EUR 100-250/sqm TI typical.

Negotiating levers

Free rent and TI remain the most negotiable line items; landlords prefer concessions to face-rent cuts because they preserve headline rent and implied valuation. Always model effective rent (face minus PV of concessions).
