What is inside every country report

Twelve sections, built from the same sourced dataset. Where a figure does not exist, the report says so instead of guessing.

  • Country overview

    Economy size, income per person, growth, inflation, currency, mortgage market, and urbanization — every figure with its year and source.

  • Market structure and supply

    Permits, completions, pipeline, housing deficit, vacancy, construction costs, land prices, and permit times.

  • Comparable markets

    Countries that stood at the same income level 5–15 years ago, including the ones where property did badly.

  • Segment viability

    Apartments, logistics, student housing, affordable housing, retail, offices, and hotels, ranked with yield ranges and entry tickets.

  • Property analyzer

    Enter a price, size, and rent. See yield, debt cover, required rent, and how the asset sits against local comparables.

  • Investment report

    Ten-year projections, IRR, downside/base/upside scenarios, quantified risks, and a full source register.
