Argentine economic and real estate instability

Overview

Argentina is experiencing significant economic and sectoral strain. In late September, the Government Confidence Index (ICG) fell 5.9% to 1.94 points, representing a 21.5% decline since the beginning of the year. This period was marked by a 2.9% contraction in economic activity in July, rising poverty affecting over 15 million people, and a loss of 329,667 registered salaried jobs since November 2023. Household consumption also saw a decline, specifically within the transport and vehicles sector.

By mid-October, the real estate sector in Argentina entered what CEDUC president Martín Teicher described as a “great plateau.” High construction costs and a depressed market for used properties have hindered activity. The reactivation of this market is reportedly dependent on the recovery of mortgage credit, as current credit lines lack sufficient funding for long-term financing.
