Frequently Asked Questions
Which European country had the highest housing price growth in 2024?
In 2024, Hungary and Poland led Europe in housing price growth, followed by Portugal and Greece. These countries saw rising demand, limited housing supply, and growing investor interest, especially in urban and rental markets.
What drove double-digit property price growth in Europe in 2024?
Growth was fueled by falling interest rates, housing shortages, and rising demand in cities. Investor activity in Poland and Hungary surged. Government incentives and rental market expansion also pushed prices up in several countries.
Did all European countries see home prices rise in 2024?
Most did, but not all. While Eastern and Southern Europe saw strong growth, some mature markets like the UK or Sweden saw slower gains or slight corrections due to high prices, affordability limits, and tighter lending conditions.
Will the rapid price growth from 2024 continue into 2025?
In 2025, growth is expected to slow. Higher interest rates and reduced incentives are cooling demand. Prices remain high due to low supply, but the sharp increases of 2024 are unlikely to repeat in most European countries.
Which markets are considered overheated after 2024’s surge?
Markets in Hungary, Poland, and Portugal saw sharp price hikes and now face affordability issues. Some cities show signs of overheating, with price-to-income gaps widening and investor-driven demand outpacing local buying power.
