Data released by several real‑estate consulting firms for the second quarter of 2026 state that the overall vacancy rate of Grade‑A office buildings in Shanghai is between 22% and 23.5%. A JLL report shows the overall vacancy rate of Shanghai Grade‑A office towers at 23.5%, with 19.3% in the Central Business District and 27.1% outside it, meaning that for every four square metres, more than one square metre is vacant.
