New figures on EU producer price indices show that between 2015 and 2025, construction producer prices for new residential buildings rose 48.2% across the EU27. The sharpest increase came in the 2021-2025 shock, when building costs surged well ahead of consumer inflation, before a slowdown in recent months. The data is drawing attention to housing affordability pressures across Europe.
