Experts predict changes in the Greek real estate market in 2024
In recent analytical reviews from leading experts involved in the real estate market in Greece, forecasts for the coming 2024 have been made. The last two years have been marked by a rapid increase in housing prices, attracting the attention of both local residents and foreign investors. However, according to the conducted research, the market may face changes in the coming months.
Trends of the last two years: A study of the trends of the last two years shows that the real estate market in Greece has experienced a noticeable upturn. Possible reasons for this growth include increased demand, stable economic performance, and the attractiveness of the region to tourists and investors.
Forecasts for 2024: However, despite favorable trends, experts foresee some changes. Banks and real estate market operators expect a slight decrease in prices in 2024. This is due to the approach to the end of a period of intensive growth.
Regional differences: An important aspect is to consider regional differences. In areas with lower demand, a more noticeable decrease in prices is expected. This may be due to an attempt to stimulate sales in these regions.
Bank of Greece Report: In its report published towards the end of 2023, the Bank of Greece has identified signs of a possible price correction. This became the basis for forecasts of an inevitable decline in housing prices in some areas.
Influence of global factors: Against the background of global events and conditions, such as high inflation and rising interest rates, the real estate market in Greece is influenced by various factors. This creates uncertainty about the long-term prospects.
Alpha Finance forecast: Alpha Finance predicts only 3% of the average annual price growth in Greece in the period 2023-2025. This forecast is confirmed by the European Banking Union and the European Central Bank.
Optimistic forecasts of the National Bank of Greece: While Alpha Finance expresses a moderate forecast, the National Bank of Greece turns out to be more optimistic, predicting an average increase in house prices of 7% over the period 2023-2024.
Conclusions: In the end, despite the expected changes, experts advise evaluating decisions in the Greek real estate market with caution. The situation will require careful monitoring, especially for those who are considering buying real estate in the coming years.
