According to Viktoras Račkovskis, Director of 1Partner LT, September's data confirms that buyers are increasingly opting for more affordable residential districts, where apartment prices are rising the fastest.
In Vilnius's Soviet-era residential districts, apartment prices increased by 11.2% over the year, compared with 7.9% growth in the city centre. As the overall price level continues to rise, more buyers are prioritising their budgets over location when choosing a property.
In the coming months, this market segment is expected to remain the most active, while the price gap between central and residential districts is likely to narrow further.
About the 1PI Housing Price Index
The 1PI Housing Price Index, developed by real estate company 1Partner LT in cooperation with its partner real estate data company Realdata and introduced in autumn 2020, tracks changes in residential property prices across different areas of Vilnius, Kaunas and Klaipėda.
In Vilnius, the 1PI index monitors apartment price levels and changes across six distinct areas of the capital. The overall 1PI indicator is calculated using the weighted contribution of each area.
The weights assigned to the different areas of Vilnius are as follows:
- Central area of the capital: 0.19
- Residential districts closer to the city centre: 0.21
- Southern area: 0.08
- Soviet-era residential districts: 0.38
- Pilaitė residential district: 0.05
- Northern area: 0.09
The apartments located within these six monitored areas account for approximately 89% of the capital's total apartment stock.
In Kaunas, apartment price levels are monitored across three distinct areas, with the overall 1PI indicator calculated according to the weight assigned to each area:
- Central area: 0.07
- Western area: 0.72
- Northern area: 0.21
The apartments in these areas represent 92% of Kaunas's total apartment stock.
In Klaipėda, apartment price levels are monitored across four distinct areas, with the overall 1PI indicator calculated using the following weights:
- Central area: 0.11
- Southern area closer to the city centre: 0.19
- Southern area further from the city centre: 0.61
- Northern area: 0.09
The apartments in these areas account for 99% of Klaipėda's total apartment stock.
Until now, housing price indices developed by Lithuanian institutions and other real estate companies have only allowed users to monitor aggregated residential property price changes within a selected city.
The 1PI index, which provides historical data dating back to January 2000, is updated monthly and is publicly accessible to all residents of Lithuania.
