The 2026 Prime Residential Report
Our annual look at prime prices, buyer origins and the ten micro-markets we are watching most closely.
Prime values held firm across southern Europe in 2026, with the strongest growth in coastal Portugal and the Italian lakes. Supply remains the binding constraint.
International buyers accounted for 62% of our transactions, led by clients from the United States, the Nordics and the Gulf.
Markets to watch
Comporta, Deià, Cernobbio and Cap d’Antibes lead our list — each combining scarcity, strict planning rules and year-round appeal.
