Prices move up and down, but in all the cities there is a positive price trend. That means that if you buy a house and keep it for many years, then its price will be higher then the bought price. But, how many years is needed to keep the house to be sure that it will have a positive balance? The chart below answers the question from historical perspective: 8 years holding always had the positive balance, or 5 years holding always had better balance compared to renting the relevant place.
Average house dwelling prices hit the record in all the cities by overcoming the level reached before the economic crisis hit in 2008.
Historically, rising mortgage interest rates have served as the main trigger of price corrections. Many banks do lend money to provide mortgages. Euribor-rate reflects the interest rate that bank has to pay to land money from other banks on the market. Now, Euribor-rate is historically low which mean that it is good time to fix rate for longer period.

Price bubbles are a regularly recurring phenomenon in property markets. The term “bubble” refers to a substantial and sustained mispricing of an asset, the existence of which cannot be proved unless it bursts. But recurring patterns of property market excesses are observable in the historical data. Typical signs include a decoupling of prices from local incomes and rents, and distortions of the real economy, such as excessive lending and construction activity. The Real Estate Bubble Index gauges the risk of a property bubble on the basis of such patterns. The Index does not predict whether and when a correction will set in. A change in macroeconomic momentum, a shift in investor sentiment or a major supply increase could trigger a decline in house prices.
House price-to-income ratios are often used as a way to compare dwelling prices in different countries and cities, with the implication often being that if the ratio in one city is significantly above that in another, then that cities dwellings are potentially overvalued (or the other’s are undervalued).
