Hungarian home sales weakened in October, according to an estimate linked to Duna House and reported by XpatLoop on Tuesday, November 3, 2026. Transactions fell 2 percent year on year to 11,277, with the comparison affected by a high base.

Transaction volumes lose momentum

For January through October, the estimate put Hungarian home sales at 94,585, a 13 percent decline from the same period a year earlier. The figures indicate a weaker transaction backdrop for a business exposed to residential brokerage and related financing services.

Credipass, Duna House's financial-services unit, recorded HUF 225 billion in mortgage outlays during October, according to the report. That was 12.6 percent below the level a year earlier, when demand had risen after the launch of the Home Start subsidized-credit scheme for first-time buyers.
