Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/01/2014 -- Like many markets in the Central Eastern Europe (CEE) region, Hungary 's commercial real estate sector h as been badly hit by the region's economic downturn and the continuing effects of the eurozone debt crisis.

As well as in-depth analysis and forecasting for each of these cities and segments, reports fed back to us from our in-country research teams provide a snap-shot of the health of each market
