All articles →CASABROVA Global Investor Briefing — October 2026
The board barely moved: twenty-one of twenty-nine markets are unchanged, and the three that crossed two points did so because our own readings changed, not because anything happened in those markets. The top is now a three-way tie — Estonia 74.6, Poland 74.3, Slovenia 74.3 — with three tenths of a point between first and third.
CASABROVA Global Investor Briefing — September 2026
The Score did not move: no market changed by even half a point, and Estonia edged past Poland into #1 by 0.20 — inside the noise. What moved was the cost of money, and in opposite directions: New Zealand and Korea raised, Israel cut, Canada held, and 12-month Euribor crossed 3%. House prices rose in 25 of the 27 markets we can price for 2025, led by Hungary at +18.3%; only Canada and New Zealand fell.
Q2 2026 Investor Briefing
Our quarterly cross-market briefing: twenty-nine markets, the cost of borrowing as a foreign buyer, cycle position, tax by nationality, and the CASABROVA Score.
Market Review — Debrecen
Debrecen is Hungary's second city and eastern economic hub. The city's university, BMW factory, and growing IT sector drive rental demand. Prices are 50-60% below Budapest, offering attractive yields. The city center and university district are prime investment areas. Debrecen's new international airport terminal and improving transport links signal continued growth.
