Company history
OfficeSpace.rent was founded in 2016 by Emmanuel DeGiovanni as Malta’s first agency dedicated exclusively to commercial office space. The thesis was simple: Malta’s office market — rapidly growing alongside the iGaming, fintech, and financial services sectors — was being served by generalist estate agents whose primary business was residential lettings and villa sales. Office occupiers needed specialists.
-
2016Founded by Emmanuel DeGiovanni as Malta’s first dedicated commercial office agency, registered our first office in Attard.
-
2017–2019Built out coverage across the island and core waterfront markets — Sliema, St Julian’s, Ta’ Xbiex — alongside heritage stock in Valletta.
-
2018–2019Expanded coverage into Malta’s emerging Grade A CBD in Mrieĥel, as Trident Park, Quad Business Towers, and Avenue77 reshaped the commercial market. Crossed 200+ concluded transactions.

Furthermore we were at the for front when the market start picking up again. Also started meeting out first customers who were working in hybrid models as the utilisation offices in Malta and across the world shifted with remote working.

Office-only — and why that matters
OfficeSpace.rent does not handle residential lettings, retail units, villas, or industrial warehousing. Every conversation, every viewing, every landlord relationship, and every market data point relates to commercial office space in Malta. This focus means we know things generalist agents cannot:
We know which landlords are flexible on di rispetto and which require strict di fermo commitments; which buildings have basement parking issues in summer; which areas are genuinely undervalued in the current cycle; which iGaming, fintech, and regulated occupiers are entering or leaving each district; and which Grade A floors are coming to market 6–9 months before they appear on portals.
Our work spans the full office lifecycle: tenant representation (sourcing, viewings, negotiation), landlord and developer advisory (floorplate design, rental positioning, fit-out strategy), and relocation guidance for international firms entering Malta — particularly iGaming operators under MGA licensing, fintech and crypto firms under MFSA supervision, and EU-facing regional headquarters.
Coverage — the eight Malta office districts
OfficeSpace.rent maintains active inventory across the eight commercial districts that account for substantially all of Malta’s Class 4A office stock. Each district page below contains dedicated market data, pricing benchmarks, and a current listings handoff.
How we compile our market data
The pricing ranges, benchmarks, and trend assessments published on OfficeSpace.rent are not estimates or industry hearsay — they are derived from actual market activity we are party to. Our methodology:
Market data methodology
- Concluded transactions. Every pricing range cited on our location and pricing pages is anchored to actual concluded transactions we brokered, with both rental and sale evidence weighted by transaction count and date.
- Active listings inventory. Our 3,800+ active listings provide a live read on asking prices, time-on-market, and supply tightness by district and building grade — refreshed continuously.
- Direct landlord relationships. We speak with Malta’s active commercial landlords on a weekly basis, capturing off-market intelligence on upcoming vacancies, rent revisions, and fit-out incentive packages that never appear in listed asking prices.
- Tenant feedback loops. Post-transaction conversations with placed tenants validate whether benchmarks held, whether negotiations achieved fair terms, and where market conditions have shifted since.
- Quarterly review. Pricing ranges and benchmark grids are reviewed each quarter; major shifts (e.g. new Grade A stock coming to market, district reclassification) trigger ad-hoc updates with dated revisions.
- Sources cited where external. Where we reference external data (e.g. EU VAT directives, Maltese planning law, MTCA guidance), the source is linked. Internal data is identified as our own observation.
This methodology means: if you read on this site that Mrieĥel Grade A stock is 30–40% below St Julian’s rates, that figure comes from actual concluded transactions we brokered in both markets in the past 12–24 months — not from a market report aggregating asking prices across portals.
Our team
Every conversation, viewing, and negotiation at OfficeSpace.rent is handled by named office specialists — not call-centre staff, not subcontracted agents.
