Disparity between the number and value of transactions
Medina data reveals a disparity in rental market movement during 2026; the number of deals in the third quarter increased to the highest level of the quarter, while its total value remained below the first quarter.
The data also shows that the high number of trades is not necessarily accompanied by a similar appreciation in its value as a result of the difference in the average value of contracts recorded between periods.
The change in the average value of the transaction does not necessarily reflect a rise or fall in the rental prices of similar real estate, as the average is affected by different types of real estate, its locations and the duration of registered contracts.
