House Prices in Cyprus Rise Marginally – European Housing Market Continues to Soar

House prices in Cyprus recorded a marginal annual increase of 0.1% in the third quarter of 2025, one of the lowest in Europe. In contrast, many other European countries, such as Hungary (+21.1%) and Portugal (+17.7%), experienced significant price increases. Overall, the housing crisis continues in Europe, with prices rising faster than inflation in many countries. Eurostat reports that between 2015 and the third quarter of 2025, rents in the EU increased by 21.1% and house prices by 63.6%. Cyprus, like other countries, faces the problem of increased demand and limited housing supply, making buying and renting expensive. This situation particularly affects young people and students, who struggle to find affordable housing.
