The Hungarian Central Statistical Office (Központi Statisztikai Hivatal, KSH), recently published the figures for sales in the first nine months of the year.

Budapest was the only city in the country where the number of sales did not fall. Compared to the same period in 2021, 15 percent more homes were sold in Budapest. The average price of a second-hand apartment in Budapest was HUF 46.2 million. This meant an increase of HUF 8.1 million compared to 2021. The average price per square metre was HUF 899,000 (EUR 2,305), which is 180,000 (EUR 461.57) more than in 2021. However, the limited number of apartments available in districts V and XII could exceed HUF 2 million (EUR 5,128.5) per square metre.

Besides Budapest, other cities also saw higher-than-average price increases. Among others, prices per square metre were higher in cities such as Debrecen, Siófok and Győr. The most expensive county seat was Veszprém, with a price per square metre exceeding HUF 600,000 (EUR 1,538.56).

However, it is worth noting that after a rapid price increase at the beginning of the year, there has been a decline in smaller towns. In the third quarter, prices continued to rise only in Budapest and the county seats, as described above.
