Selling Real Estate in 2026: From Uncertainty to Targeted Opportunities

In recent years, property investors have faced a complex and evolving market. Policy changes, fiscal adjustments and increased regulation have introduced a higher level of uncertainty. Investors have often been positioned as a contributing factor to challenges within the housing market, leading to measures with a direct impact on returns and long-term investment strategies — in many cases affecting pension planning as well.

Developments such as changes to transfer tax, the deemed return applied in Box 3, and further regulation of the mid-rental segment have prompted many private investors to reconsider their position. As a result, a significant number have chosen to sell their residential assets, influencing both market dynamics and the availability of rental housing.

2026: A Market in Motion

In 2026, the market is gradually shifting. While careful decision-making remains essential, conditions have become more transparent and movement is returning. The reduction of transfer tax for investors from 10.4% to 8% has positively influenced transaction dynamics. At the same time, demand for high-quality residential property remains stable, particularly among international and corporate buyers.

The key consideration is therefore not whether to sell, but how to position a property effectively in order to achieve an optimal result.

Selling to Expats and International Buyers

One established approach in the current market is to focus on expats and international private or corporate buyers through Expat Relocation Brokers. This buyer group is typically characterised by solid financial capacity, clear decision-making processes and a strong preference for quality, location and comfort.

Targeting these buyers contributes to a structured and efficient sales process, increasing the likelihood of a smooth transaction under market-driven conditions.
