Eurozone house price growth divergence set to ease, gradually

The world's most established prime resi markets are likely to see property values fall this year, says Savills, as the firm predicts overall positive growth for its Prime Residential World Cities Index.

Oxford Economics believes house prices across Europe will have seen a peak to-trough decline of around 3% before things turn up.

Property markets are surging around the world. But "there are good reasons to think this will mark the last house price boom for the next 30 years," says Capital Economics.
