The real estate market is often influenced by economic, political and social factors, which makes the decision to buy a home sometimes difficult. However, according to Laurențiu Afrăsine, CEO of Akcent City, the best time to make a real estate purchase is yesterday – a metaphor that emphasizes the importance of acting quickly and capitalizing on available opportunities.

When you need a home, that’s the right time

Whether it’s a family apartment or an investment, the timing often depends on personal needs. Laurențiu Afrăsine explains: “If you’re doing it for investment purposes, the ideal time is yesterday. If you’re doing it when you need it, that’s the time to act.” This logic is based on market trends: real estate prices tend to increase over time, and postponing a decision can lead to higher costs.

Why not wait for prices to drop?

One of the most common dilemmas for buyers is whether to wait for a possible price drop. However, Afrăsine argues that the premises for a significant price drop do not exist: “Bucharest and the Romanian real estate market are at a much lower level than what is happening in Europe, including Eastern Europe. The average price per useful square meter is significantly lower compared to other European capitals.”

Moreover, the supply of new housing is 23% lower than the previous year, which deepens the imbalance between supply and demand. In this context, prices are more likely to increase than decrease.
