Portugal leads Europe in house price growth at 16.3% in 2025

According to the Bank for International Settlements, this represents the third-highest result globally among 57 countries surveyed. Only North Macedonia (+20%) and Hungary (+16.8%) rank ahead. By comparison, eurozone prices rose by just 3% on average.

Croatia (+12%), Spain (+9.6%) and Slovakia (+8.6%) also feature in the top six. Notably, only three countries in the analysis experienced falling prices: Finland (−3.2%), Luxembourg (−2.8%) and Austria (−1.8%).

For investors in Portuguese real estate, these figures suggest the market remains robust. The question is how sustainable such growth proves to be and when it may begin to moderate.
