The beginning of the year confirms that 2026 is progressing under a rising price trend, although the number of transactions in several markets remains somewhat below last year\u2019s levels.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As noted by Sten Renar Subat\u0161jus<\/a>, Head of the Analytics Department, the start of 2026 has provided signals that support the forecast made at the end of last year. \u201cJanuary\u2013February confirms the trend: the number of transactions in several cities is more modest compared with the same period in 2025, but prices continue to move upward.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Estonian Apartment Market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In January, 625 apartment purchase-sale transactions were completed in Tallinn<\/strong>. This represents a decline of nearly 13% compared to the same period last year, and almost 12% compared to December. Despite the lower transaction count, the median price per square metre increased by over 5% year-on-year and more than 3% compared to the previous month, reaching 2988 \u20ac\/m\u00b2 \u2013 just below the 3000 \u20ac\/m\u00b2 threshold. \u201cThe median price reached the best level seen in recent years, last recorded at such a high point at the end of 2023,\u201d Subat\u0161jus commented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Tartu<\/strong> apartment market remained stable at a low level for the third consecutive month, staying close to the 100-transaction mark. In January, 102 transactions were completed. Compared to the previous year, transaction volume declined by nearly 29%, while activity remained largely unchanged compared to December. However, the median price per square metre showed a strong performance, increasing by nearly 6% year-on-year and an impressive 12% month-on-month, reaching 2451 \u20ac\/m\u00b2. \u201cTransaction volume in Tartu remains subdued, but price growth appears to be reaching Southern Estonia as well,\u201d Subat\u0161jus added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In P\u00e4rnu<\/strong>, 52 apartment transactions were completed in January- nearly 24% higher than last year and more than 15% higher than December. The median price rose by over 2.5% year-on-year and more than 10% month-on-month, reaching 2126 \u20ac\/m\u00b2. \u201cJanuary brought true winter cold, but despite this, Estonia\u2019s summer capital began the year with encouraging numbers,\u201d Subat\u0161jus noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Narva<\/strong>, 52 apartment transactions were completed in January. This is nearly 29% lower than the same period last year and 16% lower than December. The median price dropped to its lowest level in recent years, reaching \u20ac375\/m\u00b2 \u2013 more than 12% lower year-on-year and over 18% lower compared to December. \u201cDespite the strong figures seen at the end of 2025, the Narva apartment market has started the year in a downturn,\u201d Subat\u0161jus stated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
