Report Highlights:
European markets have enjoyed (or endured) different house price trends in recent years. While some markets such as those in the UK, Spain, Ireland and the Netherlands have recorded strong property price increases other markets such as those in Germany, France and Italy have not.
The UK continues to account for the largest share of European residential mortgage market gross advances, and in fact in 2002 the UK accounted for more than 40 per cent of the European total.
Given the size of the German population there is the potential for Europe’s largest mortgage market to develop within the country. That such a market has not already developed is the result of the low level of German homeownership and German consumers’ preference for remaining in their properties for a long time once they have become homeowners.
