This is unlike previous years when owners and realtors reduced prices after posting ads. In Budapest, the price of more than 34% of the residential properties on offer increased in the first six weeks of 2022, compared to less than 20% in recent years.

In the market outside Budapest, such as cities with county status, more than 40% of the sellers increased the price compared to the original, while in previous years, 22-30% of them decided to do so.
