The Czech National Bank predicts that the rapid increase in real estate prices will continue for at least another year, despite a recent slight slowdown in the rate of growth. While the pace of price increases has eased after two years, it remains significantly high. Surprisingly, the sharp rise in property costs is proving to be a greater obstacle to homeownership than increasing mortgage interest rates. The bank anticipates this strong upward trend will persist, making it difficult for potential buyers to enter the market. This sustained inflation impacts both apartments and houses across the country. The situation presents a challenge for those seeking to purchase property in the Czech Republic in the near future.
