The Residential Real Estate Transactions market in Iran has been experiencing significant growth in recent years.

Customer preferences: One of the main factors driving this growth is the strong demand for residential properties in Iran. The country has a young and growing population, with a large proportion of young adults looking to buy their own homes. Additionally, there is a cultural preference for owning property rather than renting, which further fuels the demand for residential real estate transactions.

Trends in the market: The market has also been influenced by several trends. One of the key trends is the increasing urbanization in Iran. As more people move to cities in search of better job opportunities and a higher standard of living, the demand for residential properties in urban areas has surged. This has led to the development of new housing projects and the expansion of existing ones to cater to the growing demand. Another trend in the market is the rising popularity of apartment living. With limited land availability in urban areas, developers have focused on constructing apartment complexes to accommodate the growing population. This has led to a shift in customer preferences, with many people opting for apartments over traditional houses.

Local special circumstances: Iran has also experienced a significant increase in foreign investment in the real estate sector. The government has implemented policies to attract foreign investors, including relaxed regulations and tax incentives. This has led to an influx of foreign capital into the market, driving up property prices and increasing the number of residential real estate transactions.

Underlying macroeconomic factors: Several macroeconomic factors have contributed to the growth of the residential real estate transactions market in Iran. The country has experienced a period of relative stability in recent years, with low inflation and a steady GDP growth rate. This has boosted consumer confidence and encouraged people to invest in property. Furthermore, the government has implemented measures to support the real estate sector, such as providing subsidies for first-time homebuyers and offering low-interest loans. These initiatives have made it easier for individuals to enter the market and have contributed to the overall growth of the residential real estate transactions market. In conclusion, the Residential Real Estate Transactions market in Iran has been growing due to strong customer demand, urbanization, and foreign investment. The popularity of apartment living and government support for the real estate sector have also played a significant role in driving the market's growth. With favorable macroeconomic conditions and a young population, the market is expected to continue its upward trajectory in the coming years.

The global housing market has slowed amid high inflation and soaring borrowing costs. Homeownership is one of the most universal signs of success and prosperity: It serves both as a source of stable and secure housing and a long-term investment. After the global financial crisis, property prices rose in many countries and especially in advanced economies. For more than a decade after that, the housing market has been on an upward trajectory, culminating in the housing boom during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, housing shortages in highly competitive markets, the recent rapid house price growth, soaring inflation, and consequently, some of the highest mortgage interest rates recorded in the past 10 years have led to the market cooling.

Soaring inflation and aggressive mortgage interest rate hikes cooled the European housing market after a nearly decade-long period of growth. Since 2015, house prices in the European Union have grown by about 50 percent. When inflation in Europe started to rise at an alarming rate in 2021, the European Central Bank increased interest rates, resulting in substantially higher mortgage interest rates and a decline in homebuying. But how important is homeownership for Europeans?

Generally considered the third key pillar of the food, clothing, and shelter trinity popularized in India over generations, owning a home is still prioritized as a measure of financial security by a vast majority of the Indian population. The COVID-19 pandemic with its successive lockdowns and restrictions to stay within the confines of one’s home, further reinforced this vision. India’s growing urban population, rising household incomes, and decade-long low-interest rates have been propelling the demand for residential units, driving up the sales volume. Even though the residential real estate sector was severely hit in 2020, it marked a strong recovery in consecutive years, crossing pre-COVID sales figures.
