CPV 70xxxxx — Real estate services
Real estate services under CPV division 70 cover EU public procurement of property management, facility management, leasing, building acquisition advisory, property valuation, and estate agency services. Contracting authorities include government property agencies managing national estate portfolios, municipalities managing public housing stock, defence estates organisations, public universities managing campus property, and regional development agencies acquiring land for public projects. Real estate services are classified as Annex XIV "light touch" services under EU procurement Directive — simplified rules apply, but transparency and publication requirements remain in place above threshold.
Public real estate management has evolved significantly — integrated facilities management (IFM) contracts combining property management, maintenance, cleaning, and energy management are increasingly procured as bundled services under CPV 70 combined with CPV 50 and CPV 90. Total facilities management contracts for large public estates (hospital campuses, government office portfolios, university campuses) can represent hundreds of millions of euros in lifecycle value. Property valuation services for compulsory purchase, asset management, and financial reporting are procured under frameworks covering multiple commissions at pre-agreed fee structures.
Contract notices under CPV division 70 are published by contracting authorities across all 27 EU member states on TED Europa. Verify current deadlines directly on TED before beginning bid preparation, as corrigenda (correction notices) may have modified the original published deadline. Estimated values shown are from the original contract notice — final awarded values are disclosed in Contract Award Notices published after the procedure concludes.
