Overview

• Official data show published rents in the city rose 45.5% year-on-year in the second quarter of 2025
• Listings surged to a decade high after the 2023 repeal of the rental law and over 70% of new leases are dollar-indexed or quarterly-adjusted
• The BCRA’s rent index fell to 55.67% in August, its lowest in 40 months, but frequent price resets keep tenants under pressure
• Property sales recovered strongly by mid-2025, with 5,762 notarized deeds in June (up 36% year-on-year) and mortgages accounting for 21% of transactions
• Regional rent inflation shows stark contrasts, with Rosario up to 81.8% year-on-year while some CABA barrios still list two-room flats under $400,000
