Hungarian Home Sales Fell 6.5% in May
Home sales in Hungary fell 6.5pc year-on-year to 10,262 in May, a monthly estimate by listed real estate broker Duna House shows.

Duna House estimated that mortgage outlays came to HUF 139bn in May, up 7pc from the same month a year earlier.

Home sales in January-May reached 53,482, up 2pc from the same period a year earlier.

Buyers' bargaining position may improve in the summer, because at this time, buyer activity is traditionally more subdued in the real estate market.

This seasonal effect, as well as the current high price level in Budapest, indicates that no significant changes are expected in the capital's sales market in the coming period.

Outside of Budapest, the markets of settlements with lower housing prices may be more active.
