The real estate market continues to slowly recover, and since property values bottomed out in mid-2023, the sector has continued to take off. This was demonstrated by the figures from the latest Zonaprop report, which revealed that listing prices for apartments in the City increased 0.4% in August, averaging US$2,450/m². The figure may seem almost imperceptible, not moving the needle on property values, but it adds to the 5.4% increase accumulated this year and the 6.5% increase recorded over the last 12 months.
A 40 m² studio apartment averages US$107,530 (US$2,560/m²) ; a 50 m² one-bedroom apartment averages US$129,621 (US$2,469/m²) ; a 70 m² two-bedroom unit reaches US$178,698 (US$2,431/m²) .
For their part, apartments under construction have seen the largest year-over-year price increases : +11.6%. Currently, the average price in Buenos Aires City is 13.9% above the minimum reached in June 2023.
The average home price rose 0.7% in August to US$1,828/m². By 2025, it will accumulate a 6% increase, exceeding the increase for apartments (5.4%).Soledad Aznarez - The Nation
