According to data from Imovirtual, the relative weight of new properties in the total market rose from 4.6% to 5.0% between March 2025 and March 2026.

While total volume isn't growing in absolute terms, new construction is more resilient than the used-property segment and remains a strategic pillar with a premium position.

With the average advertised price set at €647,500, this segment shows a 52% differential compared to used properties, whose average is €425,000.

Geographically, the new supply remains heavily concentrated along the main urban axes, with Porto (42.9%) and Lisbon (28.9%) accounting for more than 70% of the developments.

Outside of these major centres, Setúbal stands out as an emerging hub, rising to 7.6% of the supply, in contrast to the Algarve, which registered a 15% loss in its relative share.

This new construction is predominantly composed of apartments, accounting for 92.6% of the supply, although a possible diversification is noted, with a 21.4% growth in the new houses sub-segment.

The characteristics of these new properties reinforce their urban character and focus on the luxury family market, as T3 and T4 typologies account for 73.1% of the new supply, exceeding the 62.3% observed in the used market.

Sylvia Bozzo, Marketing Manager of Imovirtual, emphasises that this segment remains "more concentrated, more expensive and more oriented towards family typologies," which shows that, despite the increased relevance in the organisation of the supply, new construction continues to be poorly aligned with the needs and financial capabilities of the middle segment of the population.
