The real estate market in the Czech Republic entered 2026 with significant regional differences. Based on current data (01/2026), we are seeing year-on-year growth in apartment prices in most regional capitals, but also several locations where prices have fallen. It is therefore increasingly important for investors and buyers to work with specific figures and regional context.
Below is an overview of the development of the average selling price of a 60 m² apartment in selected regional capitals and districts of Prague. The data is based on long-term monitoring by the RealityMIX.cz real estate portal, which has been tracking these statistics continuously since 2012.
Main market trends (01/2025 vs. 01/2026)
The most significant year-on-year growth was recorded in Ostrava (+21.7%), followed by Pardubice (+18.0%) and Zlín (+14.8%).
Prague maintains stable growth (+12.5%), confirming its long-term attractiveness to investors.
On the other hand, Olomouc saw a year-on-year decline in prices of 8.5%.
Short-term month-on-month developments (12/2025 → 01/2026) show that growth is not continuing at the same pace in all cities.

What does this mean for investors?
The data shows that the Czech real estate market is not homogeneous. While some cities offer dynamic growth and capital appreciation potential, others are undergoing a correction. It is precisely these differences that create investment opportunities – whether for a shorter-term strategy or long-term property ownership.
At Reallocate.cz, we monitor similar data over the long term and combine it with other factors, such as demographics, availability of financing, and rental yields, to help our clients make informed decisions.
