Frequently Asked Questions
Should I rent or buy in Europe in 2026?
It depends on your horizon and the local price-to-rent ratio. In cities with high entry costs and modest rent growth (Paris, Lisbon), renting often wins for stays under 7 years. In faster-appreciating mid-sized cities (Berlin secondaries, Bilbao, Porto), buying can break even sooner.
What rent growth rate is realistic for the next 10 years?
Euro-area rents grew about 2-3% per year on average over 2015-2024, faster (4-6%) in Spain and Portugal post-2021. Use the country median as a baseline and stress-test ±1pp around it.
