Cyprus home price index up 3.75 percent in October

BuySell Cyprus Real Estate, a real estate advertiser, publishes a monthly ‘Home Price Index’ – the only one of its kind in Cyprus.

The company started to produce the index in 2004. It shows the movement of prices at which residential properties in Cyprus are sold and is based on an average of around 400 to 500 property sales/month.

When the index started in January 2004, the average residential property price was CYP 77,910. By the end of October 2007, it had reached CYP 107,686 – an increase of 38.22% over the 46 months since its introduction. This equates to an approximate annual growth of 9.97%.

For the whole of 2006, the Index rose by 5.87%, after a rise of 2.48% in 2005.

In the first 10 months of 2007, the Index has risen by 15.43%
