Buyers from abroad

705 of September 2026's contracts were for buyers from abroad: 210 from the EU and 495 from outside it, about 41.9% of the 1,681 deposited. From January to September, 6,267 were: 41.9% of all contracts, against 39.6% a year earlier, and +20.2% on the same months of 2025 (from the EU +21.2%, from outside it +19.7%).

The DLS counts properties in its buyers-from-abroad figures and contracts in the totals, so the shares are close rather than exact. It asks that figures from before 2018 are not compared with later ones; this series starts in January 2020. It publishes them about a week after the totals, most recently on 6 October 2026.

Completed sales and their value

1,879 sales were completed in September 2026, the moment title passes to the buyer, with €437m declared, +7.9% on September 2025. From January to September, €3.46bn was declared across 14,764 completed sales, +7.1% on the same months of 2025 and already 79% of 2025's full-year €4.36bn.

A sale completes when title transfers, often months or years after its contract, so these trail the contracts above. The declared value is what buyer and seller state; the DLS may accept a different value when it assesses fees, and the CSV carries both. The series starts in January 2014; the DLS last updated it on 6 October 2026. Download these figures (CSV).

Every full year since 2006

The DLS notes that its Land Information System holds data on 91.50% of 2006's property sales, 92.92% of 2007's and 96.15% of 2008's, so those years read low against later ones.
