Top 10 Most Expensive Office Spaces To Rent

  1. London – The most expensive place in the world to rent office space is of course London.  Office rental here averages  2,122 euro per sqm, per year.
  2. Hong Kong – Offices in this vibrant city cost an average of 1,500 euros per sqm, per year.
  3. Moscow – An office here will set you back over 1,090 euros per sqm, per year.
  4. Beijing – By the end of 2014, China will be the biggest economy in the world, surpassing even the USA.  No surprise then that it’s leapt from 7th to 4th in the list.  The average price is 1,027 euros per sqm per year in the central business district of Beijing.
  5. Tokyo –  The Capitol of Japan continues to be a dominant force in Asia, and an office here would cost you around 1,003 euros per sqm, per year.

  7. Rio de Janeiro –  The Brazilian economy is soaring at the moment; last year it notched up a 0.7% growth rate in the last quarter alone.  No wonder it costs about 991 euros per sqm here.
  8. New Delhi –  Now this may surprise a lot of people, but with its strong service industry sector, New Delhi is not as inexpensive as you may think!  An office here costs around 959 euros per sqm.
  9. Edinburgh –  A city famous for its culture and history, Edinburgh is also number 9 on our list.  You can expect to pay on average 895 euros per sqm per year for an office in the city of history. Living in Edinburgh is a wonderful opportunity and a fantastic place for economy and travel.
