Why 2026 will not bring a drop in apartment prices?

We analyzed for Forbes whether real estate prices will continue to rise during 2026 and concluded that a decline is not realistic as long as demand exceeds supply. According to Saša Perko, significant jumps in construction material prices are not expected (growth around inflation level), but the key pressure on prices comes from rising labor costs and increasing land prices (especially in cities due to shortage of plots and more restrictive plans). As a solution, the need for faster and simpler administrative processes is emphasized to shorten project cycles and increase supply.

Promises and reality: Can the state finally address affordable housing?

We analyze whether the state, through a new affordable housing model, can truly alleviate the chronic shortage of available housing – or if a segment of the market will become even more expensive due to new regulations. Special focus is placed on the program conditions (sales and rental restrictions, installment purchases, square footage criteria) and the plan for activating vacant apartments through affordable rental under APN supervision. The conclusion is that these measures can assist some citizens, but they will not automatically lower prices in attractive locations where demand continues to outweigh supply.
