Malta’s residential property market generated €3.97 billion in transaction value during 2025, bringing annual activity just short of the €4 billion mark, according to newly published National Statistics Office (NSO) data.

The total value of final deeds of sale increased by 12.4 per cent compared to 2024, outpacing growth in transaction volumes and highlighting the continued capital-intensive nature of the local property market.

This expansion came alongside a 5.9 per cent rise in the number of final deeds of sale, which climbed to 13,339 transactions over the year, up from 12,598 in 2024.

One of the most striking signals from the 2025 data is the scale of quarterly capital flows. The NSO figures show that each of the last two quarters of the year exceeded €1 billion in transaction value, underlining the depth and liquidity of Malta’s residential property market.

The third quarter generated approximately €1.04 billion, while the fourth quarter rose further to €1.07 billion, making the second half of the year particularly strong in value terms.

This pattern suggests that demand for residential assets remained robust even amid tighter financial conditions, with higher-value transactions continuing to clear the market.

While price indices provide one view of market conditions, the combination of rising transaction volumes and sharply higher aggregate values indicates that pricing resilience persisted throughout 2025.

The data suggests that capital continued to flow into residential property at an accelerated pace, supported by household demand and sustained investor interest, particularly in urban and high-demand districts.
