Standing out are the declines in Bologna (-22.8%), Rome (-21.5%) and Milan (-17.1%), which is saved only by less significant declines''in the periphery compared to the central areas, where the decrease amounted to 20%. Palermo and Naples performed best with -4.9% and -5.3% respectively.

The data provided by the Research Department of the Teknokaza Group indicate that the real estate market is in a period of significant slowdown: rising interest rates and general uncertainty are creating caution among potential buyers, especially those in need of a mortgage. In fact, there is a reduction in demand on the lending front, and lending institutions are increasingly scrutinizing the creditworthiness of applicants.
