The sale of real estate in CABA grew almost 94% in January

This monthly decline is due to seasonal factors, since in summer times the sale are usually minor. Anyway, this was the best January since 2018.

With respect to December, the average amount of operations rose around US $ 9,154, according to information from the Caba’s College. This is a Increase of almost 9% monthly in dollars.

This price increase is due to different factors, among which the use of mortgage loans and the rearrangement of market values ​​stand out.

With respect to the first point, The proportion of operations specified through the use of mortgage credit increased. Of the total sale, 945 were made with credit, forming a consistent 25,9%more than the average of 2024, in which mortgages represented 9.12% of sales.

“This month the incidence of mortgages was greater, One in four operations was with mortgage credit. Able that since March can decrease a bit, when the number of total writings grows, ”explains Jorge de Bártolo, president of the Caba’s College.

Daniel Bryn, from Zipcode explains: “The return of the grape mortgage loans begins to generate more operations in middle sectors. In some cases, the quota of a loan is comparable to a rent, which drives certain buyers to take financing instead of continuing to rent. This factor explains why the average ticket is uploading, since the most accessible units are tractioning sales. ”

On the type of homes that are being marketed, Bryn adds that many people are currently looking for three and four environments departmentsin contrast to the prominence they previously maintained the monitor and that of a room, thanks to credit.

Likewise, properties are being marketed with a lower percentage of difference between the published price and the offered, which is around 5%.

On the other hand, the real estate market was already waiting for an increase in sales values, both for the growing demand for departments and because The price of those used had lagged behind.

The real estate market was part of the impulse that had the consumption of durable goods last month, according to the consumption indicator of the Argentine Chamber of Commerce and Services (CAC).

In accordance with the decrease in the January inflation rate, which marked 2.2% monthly, Consumption increased 4.3% monthly desestationalized (Discussing the usual seasonal effects of consumption throughout the year) according to this indicator, and 5.4% year -on -year.

Cac’s report states that “this dynamic represents a change in the structure of household consumption, oriented more to durable goods Flisted by credit than daily consumer goods. ”

“Prices are finding a balance point. We are not seeing an abrupt risebut a greater volume of operations to values ​​more adjusted to current reality. This is positive for both buyers and vendors, since it allows the market to boost and reduce the uncertainty that characterized the last years, ”says Bryn.

The 2025 started with comparative growth in real estate transactions, both in quantity and in values, and the greatest use of mortgage loans allows a rearrangement of sales prices.
