Market Report is based on analyzes based on sales and rental transaction data generated by the activities of Svoboda & Williams. In conjunction with the data on the sale of real estate obtained from the Land Register, which by their parameters fit into the Svoboda & Williams portfolio, a comprehensive overview of the current sale and rental prices on the Prague premium residential market is created. The price analysis is complemented, inter alia, by a summary of the demand and supply of real estate in this market segment and commentary from brokers Svoboda & Williams . The Market Report also includes a Focus section  , which focuses on a variety of topics related to the Prague real estate market - this time giving space to Nuslím, a neighborhood that is currently undergoing many changes.
