In 2025, the real estate market in Romania recorded a 30% decrease in transaction volume, but Romanian investors have become a stable source of capital.

The year 2025 was a complicated one for the real estate market in Romania, with a decrease of almost 30% in the total value of transactions, reaching 525 million euros, influenced by the increase in VAT and political uncertainties.

This decrease does not reflect a withdrawal of investors, but rather the postponement of some large transactions. Romanian investors generated about 30% of the transaction volume, establishing themselves as a stable source of capital, accounting for 20% of total investments in the last decade.

Retail was the most active segment, with a major transaction of 57 million euros, followed by offices, which represented 31% of the volume. Banks have become more open to financing, and a moderate increase in investments is anticipated for 2026, supported by the stabilization of yields and a better perception of economic risks. Political stability will be essential for a sustainable recovery in the market.
