All articles →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.
Romania Gets the Signal. Poland Stays on Watch.
Why CASABROVA is entering one Eastern European market through its model framework, while waiting for a cleaner entry signal in the other.
After Spain: Where Europe’s Foreign Property Money Goes Next
Spain is now late-cycle and crowded for foreign buyers — so where does Europe's property money rotate next? CASABROVA separates revealed preference, structural quality (the Score) and timing (the Master Index), and maps the case for Romania, Poland and the UAE.
CASABROVA Global Investor Briefing — June 2026
June’s briefing is a one-time Score reset: Netherlands, Ireland and Poland cluster at the top; Spain, Portugal and Czechia remain in withdrawal; Greece is at peak; Germany and the UK move toward recovery; Romania enters the Virtual Portfolio.
Market Review — Timisoara
Timisoara, Romania's third-largest city, earned the 2023 European Capital of Culture title, boosting international visibility. The city's IT sector and proximity to Western Europe drive rental demand from young professionals. Fabric, Iosefin, and Elisabetin are emerging investment neighborhoods. Prices remain among the lowest in the EU for a city of this economic significance.
