The number of apartments moving in the country will decrease by 22% next year..."The least since 2021".

Next year, apartment occupancy across the country is expected to be more than 20% lower than this year, the lowest level since 2021.

Real estate brokerage platform Jikbang said that the total number of apartments moving in next year's apartments nationwide is 237,582 households, 22% less than this year.

This is the smallest volume since 236,622 households in 2021.

By region, 119,900 households in the metropolitan area and 126,682 households in the provinces are expected to move in, with only Seoul increasing and Busan and Daegu decreasing in the metropolitan area, while Chungcheong and Gyeongnam increasing.

Zigbang predicted that the atmosphere of the apartment transaction market will not be bright for the time being amid the cold atmosphere in the apartment transaction market due to the aftermath of loan regulations and political turmoil.
