Bucharest and Ilfov County accounted for 26.1% of all real estate transactions recorded nationwide in October 2026, according to data published by the National Agency for Cadastre and Land Registration (ANCPI). The Bucharest–Ilfov region maintained its position as Romania’s leading real estate market, despite a 4.8% year-on-year decline in the number of properties traded nationwide compared to October 2025.
According to ANCPI data released in November, Bucharest recorded the highest number of real estate transactions nationwide, with 11,086 properties sold, followed by Ilfov County, with 3,462 transactions. Together, the two markets accounted for 14,548 transactions, representing 26.1% of the national total.
North Bucharest Investments (NBI) closed October 2026 with a total transaction volume of EUR 21.63 million, representing 124 transactions. Compared to September, the company recorded a 4.2% increase in the number of transactions, maintaining a transaction value exceeding EUR 21 million for the second consecutive month. During the first six months of the year, NBI reported an intermediated transaction volume of over EUR 100 million.
“Bucharest and Ilfov continue to reinforce their central role in Romania’s real estate market, while northern Bucharest remains, from the perspective of our business activity, the primary hub of residential demand.
The market is becoming increasingly selective, with buyers placing greater emphasis on location, infrastructure, and long-term investment value. Looking ahead to 2027, our focus is on portfolio diversification and technology integration to respond more effectively to actual market demand,” said Andreea Nicolae, Investor Relations Manager at North Bucharest Investments (NBI).
