The Austrian National Bank (OeNB) has published a new residential real estate dashboard on its website, providing an interactive overview of the Austrian housing market and linking market developments to financial stability risks. The tool targets practitioners and stakeholders including banks, investors, journalists and the wider public. The dashboard uses a broad definition of the residential property market, covering all dwellings from apartments to single-family and terraced houses, with an emphasis on ownership transactions, residential property as loan collateral and households as borrowers, while rental data is only marginally included. Content is structured across four thematic areas covering supply, demand, market activity and prices, and a macroprudential module with residential mortgage data, credit quality metrics, risk indicators and monitoring of the Financial Market Stability Board guideline; it consolidates around 10 data sources and offers roughly 70 volume and price indicators, including newly published high-granularity metrics focused on lending standards for private housing finance. Data can be downloaded and explored via interactive features such as time-series zoom, tooltips, filters and direct chart export, with quarterly updates and accompanying definitions and methodology notes. The OeNB also plans to publish an annual market report alongside the dashboard and intends to expand the dashboard to cover commercial real estate in 2026.
