Nearly 19,000 homes will be bought and sold in Sardinia in 2025. Of these, 8,000 are concentrated in the province of Cagliari and over 1,900 in the capital. This is the snapshot taken by the Revenue Agency's Real Estate Market Observatory , presented this morning by Fimaa Confcommercio Sud Sardegna (Italian Federation of Business Brokers and Agents).
Behind these numbers, however, lies what operators define as the market's main critical issue : fewer and fewer homes are available. Demand continues to grow, fueled by families, young couples, and investors, but supply is struggling to keep pace . The result is a progressive increase in prices and increasingly rapid sales times.
"Prices have risen because the current problem is the shortage of supply," explains Marco Mainas, president of Fimaa Confcommercio Sud Sardegna. "When demand remains high and properties are scarce, prices inevitably rise."
Driving the market are primarily young couples looking for their first home and families looking to purchase additional properties . The most sought-after types of properties are three- and four-bedroom apartments, thanks in part to favorable interest rates and green mortgages. There's also no shortage of foreigners buying on the island: "They come from all over the world and are no longer just buying in the coastal areas but also in the inland areas."
In the capital, the average value stands at around €1,900 per square meter, but prices vary significantly from neighborhood to neighborhood. The most valuable areas remain Poetto, Monte Urpinu, Bonaria, Genneruxi, and Quartiere del Sole, where prices reach up to €4,000 per square meter.
Despite the shortage of properties, real estate agents are confident about the coming months. According to a survey conducted by Fimaa, over 61% of real estate agents expect a stable market in the second half of 2026. However, the rental issue remains unresolved, with housing availability still insufficient to meet demand.
