The highest price per square meter was recorded in the centre, with an average of €3,283/sqm for properties considered “Ultra-Central”, however most other areas haven't dropped below €2,200/sqm. The only time prices drop below €2,000 are for areas directly outside or on the outskirts of the city, such as Apahida, Floresti and Aeroport. These areas are typically less desirable due to congestion and issues with infrastructure.

There are plans to introduce significant improvements to infrastructure in theses areas with the introduction of the metropolitan train and metropolitan belt in the coming years.

Renting

Rental prices across the city have been pretty stable with the average in the centre being €10 per square meter and down to €6 per square meter in Floresti.
