Average cost of housing now \u20ac2,150 p\/m\u00b2<\/p><\/div>\n

The price of second-hand housing in Spain increased by 0.2% in July, when compared to the previous month.<\/strong> When compared to the same month in 2022, the increase is 9.7%. This brings the average cost per square metre to \u20ac2,150 p\/m\u00b2. Notably, this increase is the seventh consecutive increase of more than 9% so far in 2023.<\/p>\n

“The cost of housing continues in very bulky variations of almost double digits. The excessive price increases continue to be the trend after more than a half a year with such significant increases. The impact of the rise in interest rates has failed to cool demand enough to balance the market and, in fact, the available housing stock continues to be low, causing prices to increase. The most stressed provincial capitals continue to present very significant increases of up to 20%, this situation is unprecedented, it represents the highest price increase in such a short period of time in recent history<\/em>“, explained Mar\u00eda Matos, Director of Studies at Fotocasa<\/a>.<\/p>\n
