What the model expects
The central estimate at each horizon, and the range prices land in 8 times out of 10.
| Horizon | Expected | 80% range | Chance of a rise | Chance of beating inflation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| In 3 months (November 2026) | €399,820 | €343,340 – €456,301 | 69% | 67% |
| In 4 months (December 2026) | €407,294 | €342,047 – €472,541 | 72% | 69% |
| In 12 months (August 2027) | €467,081 | €353,674 – €580,489 | 84% | 80% |
The outlook carries the region's own monthly price history forward: the recent trend and how far prices usually stray from it. It knows nothing about interest-rate decisions, new laws or local projects, so read it as a description of momentum, not a forecast to act on.
