It is something unpublished from before the rental law, which remembers what happened at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, where the values froze.
The cement report determined that the values, for the first time, did not rise between the month of January of this year and February, although they register increases of almost 43% interannual for departments of 1, 2 and 3 environments.
For monoambientes, the average was set at $ 400,000, with an interannual increase of 42.9%; For two environments it was $ 500,000 (42.9%), and for three environments $ 700,000 (40%).
From the cessation, they point out that it is due to a combination of several factors. One of them is that during 2023, supply prices shot over inflation and dollar, since the owners sought to cover prolonged periods without increases. However, after the repeal of the rental law, the owners can adjust the conditions more frequently.
Another reason is the increase in the offer of properties for rent, motivated by deregulation, and the fall of the purchasing power of families, which limits the ability to validate high prices. In turn, the exchange appreciation reduced the demand for temporary rentals from tourism, which had an impact on the CABA market.
