Briefings
The Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (INE) reported that house prices rose 18.4% in the second quarter of 2026, marking a slowdown compared to the 19.8% increase in the previous quarter. However, this acceleration was observed in only 10 of the largest 24 municipalities, indicating a regional disparity in the market's upward trend.
Key points
- House prices in Brazil increased by 18.4% in the second quarter of 2026, a decrease from the 19.8% rise in the prior quarter.
- The price acceleration was limited to 10 of the 24 largest municipalities, suggesting regional variation in market dynamics.
Context
This finding highlights a shift in the Brazilian housing market, with the second quarter showing a slower rate of price growth compared to the first half of the year, though significant regional disparities remain.
Limitations
The data covers only the second quarter of 2026, with no information on the first quarter or the full year. The analysis is limited to the 24 largest municipalities, and the specific drivers of the regional disparity are not identified.
