Total DVF statistics: statistics by geographical scale, over the 10 semesters available. Monthly DVF statistics: statistics by geographical scale and by month. Description of treatment The code allows statistics to be generated from the data of land value requests, aggregated at different scales, and their evolution over time (monthly). The following indicators have been calculated on a monthly basis and over the entire period available (10 semesters): * number of mutations * average prices per m2 * median of prices per m2 * Breakdown of sales prices by tranches for each type of property from: * houses * apartments * houses + apartments * commercial premises and for each scale from: * nation * Department * EPCI * municipality * Cadastral section The source data contain the following types of mutations: sale, sale in the future state of completion, sale of building land, tendering, expropriation and exchange. We have chosen to keep only sales, sales in the future state of completion and auctions for statistics*. In addition, for the sake of simplicity, we have chosen to keep only mutations that concern a single asset (excluding dependency)*. Our path is as follows: 1. for a transfer that would include assets of several types (e.g. a house + a commercial premises), it is not possible to reconstitute the share of the land value allocated to each of the assets included. 2. for a transfer that would include several assets of the same type (e.g. X apartments), the total value of the transfer is not necessarily equal to X times the value of an apartment, especially in the case where the assets are very different (area, work to be carried out, floor, etc.). We had initially kept these goods by calculating the price per m2 of the mutation by considering the goods of the mutation as a single good of an area to the sum of the surfaces of the goods, but this method, which ultimately concerned only a marginal quantity of goods, did not convince us for the final version. The price per m2 is then calculated by dividing the land value of the change by the surface area of the building of the property concerned. We finally exclude mutations for which we could not calculate the price per m2, as well as those whose price per m2 is more than € 100k (arbitrary choice)*. We have not incorporated any other outlier restrictions in order to maintain fidelity to the original data and to report potential anomalies. Displaying the median on the site reduces the impact of outliers on color scales. _*: The mentioned filters are applied for the calculation of statistics, but all mutations of the source files are well displayed on the application at the plot level.

Housing Index in Spain increased to 1972.10 EUR/SQ. METRE in the fourth quarter of 2024 from 1921 EUR/SQ. METRE in the third quarter of 2024.

In the decades between 1930 and 2020, the size of the average living room in newly built houses in Britain has risen from 16 square meters in the 1930s, to 24.9 square meters in the 1970s, before falling to 17.1 square meters in recent years. The reason for the increase in living room size (and house sizes in general) between 1950 and 1980, was due to Britain's economic recovery after the Second World War. However, decreasing family sizes caused the demand for larger houses to drop from the 1980s onwards, and today, newly built living rooms are closer in size to their pre-war levels than their size in the previous decade.

Oslo was the Norwegian city with the highest average price per square meter for residential property in March 2024. The prices in the Norwegian capital reached over 94,000 Norwegian kroner per square meter. The country's average that year was around 54,000 Norwegian kroner.

The sixth arrondissement of Paris was the area with the highest residential real estate price in the French capital as of January 2024. In this arrondissement, which includes several historical sites like Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the Académie Française and the Jardin du Luxembourg, the average price per square meter amounted to over 15,000 euros. Paris is known for being one of the most expensive European cities to rent an apartment. The price difference in the twenty arrondissements of Paris The French capital is divided into twenty arrondissements, which correspond to administrative districts. Because of their geographical situations in regards with the economic centers of the city of Paris, as well as their environments and the living conditions they offer, arrondissements do not have the same average price per square meter. For example, the average square meter price for an apartment in cosmopolitan districts like the 19th and the 20th arrondissements, located in the northeastern part of the city, amounted to a little bit more than 8,800 euros, compared to close to 13,000 euros in Le Marais (4th arrondissement). Paris was by far the most expensive city in France, regardless of the localization of the accommodation. In 2023, the average price per square meter for rental flats reached 31 euros in Paris and 16 euros in Marseille, France’s second-largest city. The rise in rental prices in European cities It appears cities in Europe have seen their rental prices increasing in the past years. In Germany, for instance, if Berlin used to be described as “poor but sexy” (to quote Berlin’s former mayor Klaus Wowereit), it appears that the German capital is not unaffected by the rise in rents. From 2016 to 2022, the average rent price of residential property in Berlin went from 8.9 euros per square meter, up to 12.8 euros five years later.

Some of the 21 districts of Spain’s capital city are well far off the 2,800 euros per square meter that Spaniards had to pay on average to purchase a home in 2023. The Spanish capital is home to some of the wealthiest districts of Spain, such as the historic Salamanca district, which topped the list at almost 7,000 euros per square meter. Rents in SpainWhilst Madrid’s districts had the highest prices for residential real estate, the Spanish capital was not the most expensive place to rent. Ibiza topped the list of the least affordable properties to rent, with households hypothetically requiring over 162 percent of their full income to pay off the rent. Located in the Andalusian province of Malaga, Marbella ranked second on the list, with over 156 percent of the full household income. Spain: the rebirth of a property marketAfter a long period of time in which Spain’s real estate prices increased sharply, the market was hit by the global financial crisis of 2007, making the Spanish property bubble collapse and damaging home value. It can be seen that real estate prices in Spain initiated a solid recovery in 2015, reaching 131.9 house price index points in 2021 from a lowest point of 96.27 index points recorded in 2013. The property market has made great progress, but it is still far off the rest of its European counterparts, and it is positioned, in fact, at the bottom of the European list of the EMF’s house price index, which is led by Czechia.

In 2024, the average square footage price of condos and new development condos in Brooklyn, NY declined slightly. Prices of one-to-three family homes, on the other hand, increased from 635 U.S. dollars per square foot in the third quarter of 2023 to 795 U.S. dollars in the third quarter of 2024.

Paris, Lyon, and Bordeaux are the most expensive cities for residential real estate in France.

The average price of detached and duplex houses in the biggest cities in Germany varied between approximately 4,500 euros and 10,000 euros per square meter in 2024. Housing was most expensive in Munich, where the square meter price of houses amounted to 9,806 euros. Conversely, Berlin was most affordable, with the square meter price at 4,512 euros. How have German house prices evolved? House prices maintained an upward trend for more than a decade, with 2020 and 2021 experiencing exceptionally high growth rates. In 2021, the nominal year-on-year change exceeded 10 percent. Nevertheless, the second half of 2022 saw the market slowing, with the annual percentage change turning negative for the first time in 12 years. Another way to examine the price growth is through the house price index, which uses 2015 as a base. At its peak in 2022, the German house price index measured about 166 percent, which means that a house bought in 2015 would have appreciated by 66 percent. Is housing affordable in Germany? Housing affordability depends greatly on income: High-income areas often tend to have more expensive housing, which does not necessarily make them unaffordable. The house price to income index measures the development of the cost of housing relative to income. In the first quarter of 2024, the index value stood at 110, meaning that since 2015, house price growth has outpaced income growth by about 10 percent. Compared with the average for the euro area, this value was lower.

The average price per square meter of houses in the district of Sarrià-Sant Gervasi, Barcelona, amounted to approximately 5,498 euros in December 2023. During the same time period the value of the square meter in L'Eixample also exceeded 5,000 euros.

The average transaction price of new housing in Europe was the highest in Norway, whereas existing homes were the most expensive in Austria. Since there is no central body that collects and tracks transaction activity or house prices across the whole continent or the European Union, not all countries are included. To compile the ranking, the source weighed the transaction prices of residential properties in the most important cities in each country based on data from their national offices. For example, in Germany, the cities included were Munich, Hamburg, Frankfurt, and Berlin. House prices have been soaring, with Sweden topping the ranking Considering the RHPI of houses in Europe (the price index in real terms, which measures price changes of single-family properties adjusted for the impact of inflation), however, the picture changes. Sweden, Luxembourg and Norway top this ranking, meaning residential property prices have surged the most in these countries. Real values were calculated using the so-called Personal Consumption Expenditure Deflator (PCE), This PCE uses both consumer prices as well as consumer expenditures, like medical and health care expenses paid by employers. It is meant to show how expensive housing is compared to the way of living in a country. Home ownership highest in Eastern Europe The home ownership rate in Europe varied from country to country. In 2020, roughly half of all homes in Germany were owner-occupied whereas home ownership was at nearly 97 percent in Romania or around 90 percent in Slovakia and Lithuania. These numbers were considerably higher than in France or Italy, where homeowners made up 65 percent and 72 percent of their respective populations.For more information on the topic of property in Europe, visit the following pages as a starting point for your research: real estate investments in Europe and residential real estate in Europe.
