Prices in the Bucharest residential market seem to move chaotically, depending on various stimuli, from pandemics to increased salaries (especially for the public-sector employees), but also on the supply-demand ratio. Thus, according to the real estate portal anunțul.ro, the average prices of houses and villas in Bucharest and its surroundings have been falling continuously since May 2021, even though they were said, after the lockdown, to be sought after by buyers. The still high prices, but also the dissipation of fears of a new lockdown have, however, reduced demand.

For 3-room apartments in Bucharest, the situation is a bit strange. Although average sales prices have risen by almost 1% to more than €100,000, the opposite is true for rents. For 3-bedroom apartments in Bucharest, average rents in July were €495/month, down by 1% after a rise of more than 5% in June.

On average, the asking price for 2-room apartments in Bucharest stagnated in July, at almost €70,000. At the same time, asking rents rose by an average of 3.88% to €375/month.

Interestingly, more than 3,000 new homes completed in Bucharest and its surroundings in the last three and a half years have been purchased for investment purposes and offered for rent, according to an analysis by real estate consultancy SVN Romania.

The current occupancy rate of these dwellings is over 90%, with over 2,700 units being rented to tenants on a medium to long term basis, i.e. for periods of at least six months. In total, more than 55,000 dwellings have been completed in Bucharest and its surroundings from 2018 to date, according to statistics from the National Institute of Statistics and SVN Romania estimates.

More than 5,500 dwellings have been purchased by investors, representing about 10% of the total deliveries. Of these, about 45% were resold, with the remainder being offered for rent for long-term returns.
