According to Viktoras Račkovskis, Director of 1Partner LT, the housing market remains fairly active during the summer, and liquidity is much better than a year ago. This has been driven primarily by the rapidly declining EURIBOR, which significantly improves borrowing opportunities, as well as positive trends in the economy and labour market. For now, a positive scenario is unfolding: the housing market is gradually warming up and a trend of rising prices is taking shape.
About the 1PI Housing Price Index
The housing price index developed by the real estate company 1Partner LT together with its partner real estate organisation Realdata and launched in autumn 2020 shows changes in housing prices across different areas of Vilnius, Kaunas and Klaipėda. In analysing Vilnius, the 1PI index tracks the level and change of apartment prices in 6 different areas of the capital, from which the overall 1PI indicator is calculated based on the weight of each area (the central part of the capital has a weight of 0.19 in the index, the central part of residential districts - 0.21, the southern part - 0.08, Soviet-era residential districts - 0.38, Pilaitė - 0.05, and the northern part - 0.09). The number of apartments in the 6 monitored areas accounts for about 89% of the capital's apartment stock. In Kaunas, apartment price levels are monitored in 3 different zones, from which the overall 1PI indicator is calculated according to the weight of each area (the central part has a weight of 0.07 in the index, the western part - 0.72, and the northern part - 0.21). The number of apartments in these zones accounts for 92% of Kaunas's apartment stock. In Klaipėda, apartment price levels are monitored in 4 different zones, from which the overall 1PI indicator is calculated according to the weight of each area (the central part has a weight of 0.11 in the index, the southern part closer to the centre - 0.19, the southern part farther from the centre - 0.61, and the northern part - 0.09). The number of apartments in these zones accounts for 99% of Klaipėda's apartment stock.
Until now, housing price indices developed by Lithuanian institutions and other real estate companies and used in the country made it possible to monitor only the aggregate change in housing prices for a selected city.
1PI, which provides data from January 2000 onward, is updated every month and is available to every resident of the country.
