São Paulo corporate real estate market shifts

Overview

Itaú Unibanco signed a record-breaking lease for the Esther Towers complex in São Paulo, covering approximately 91,400 square meters across two towers. The 10-year agreement is expected to generate R$ 1.17 billion for the developer Eztec and supports the bank’s hybrid work policy.

This transaction has acted as a catalyst for the São Paulo commercial real estate market, signaling a new investment cycle characterized by rising rents and a potential shortage of large-scale corporate office spaces. Industry analysts suggest that the scarcity of contiguous office areas may become a significant issue by 2027. In response to surging demand in premium districts, several developers have initiated new projects scheduled for delivery around 2028.
