The Master Index
Watch HPI, FCI, volume, supply pipeline, affordability, and local pressure move through the cycle.
Pick a market and explore the same multi-indicator Master Index chart used on country pages. Base year 2015 = 100, with CASABROVA cycle bands behind the lines.
Master Index
Multi-indicator analysis across demand cycle, supply side, local pressure, and volume
Methodology: Official public data (Eurostat, OECD, central banks, national statistics). Index layers use base 2015=100; Youth Displacement is shown as %. Updated quarterly. Not investment advice.
Rent-Parity Floor shows the price level at which market rent justifies buying under local financing terms (full-payment mortgage parity). It reflects the entire market - including foreign demand - and is not a measure of local-resident affordability.
This line shows real-estate-specific Foreign Direct Investment from official central-bank/statistics-office data. 2025 national-source rows are provisional bridge values and should be replaced by Eurostat/OECD NACE/ISIC L when published. The breakdown pie below shows the RE share of total FDI for context.
* Year marked as partial - final full-year data pending. Phase classification provisional.
