Although in Lithuania it is often thought that real estate in Vilnius is the most expensive in the Baltic states, Tallinn in fact retains the leading position: the average price per square metre with full finishing in the Estonian capital reaches almost 5,000 euros. However, the dynamics of recent years show that investors’ attention is rapidly shifting to neighbouring markets.

In the “Verslo tribūna” column, Aurimas Satkūnas, Head of Investor Relations at the crowdfunding platform “Profitus”, and Business Development Manager Arnoldas Antanavičius share their insights on neighbouring markets and the directions in which it is worth diversifying a portfolio today.

The Latvian real estate market, which went into a slump in 2022 due to the withdrawal of Russian capital, is showing clear signs of recovery: Riga is seeing double-digit growth and increasing sales volumes. In Estonia, there is strong demand for more affordable and mid-segment housing, as a large part of development has been focused on the luxury segment.

“When investing in real estate in Latvia and Estonia, for comparable risk and similar parameters, investors are almost always offered higher interest rates,” explains A. Antanavičius about the incentives and additional benefits for Lithuanian investors who diversify outside Lithuania.

A. Satkūnas notes that Riga’s potential attracts many developers: “The price per square metre is indeed low compared with Vilnius, while the prospects and rental prices are clearly higher.”

Alternative financing makes it possible to invest in large-scale commercial and residential projects both in the Baltic states and in Spain, including together with institutional investors. Experts emphasise that this period is an excellent opportunity for investors to “lock in with bonuses”.
