As rent prices across the bloc keep climbing, the biggest jump in costs over the past five years was detected in Southern and Eastern Europe. This is according to a recent Deutsche Bank report, which scrutinised 67 cities worldwide and 28 in Europe.
According to Eurostat, house prices increased by 27.3% between the first quarters of 2020 and 2025, while rents rose by 12.5% from June 2020 to June 2025. But this report indicates that rent increases in city centres were significantly greater than this average.
