Interest rate cut: what It means for Luxembourg's real estate market

On Thursday, June 5th, 2025, the European Central Bank (ECB) announced another cut to its main interest rate, reducing the deposit rate by 0.25 points to 2%. This marks the eighth rate cut in a year, sending a strong signal to households and businesses across the eurozone—and offering potential new momentum for the Luxembourg real estate market.


🔍 Context: Inflation under control, but growth remains fragile

Since mid-2024, the ECB has gradually loosened monetary policy as inflation eased back toward its 2% target. In May, eurozone inflation dropped to 1.9%, allowing the ECB to encourage investment and consumption in a context of weak demand and ongoing global trade tensions—especially with the United States.


🏡 What does this mean for real estate in Luxembourg?

This rate cut is good news for property buyers in Luxembourg. In practical terms:

  • 📉 Mortgage interest rates may continue to fall, improving access to financing.
  • 💶 Overall buying costs could drop, making properties more affordable.
  • 📈 Buyer demand may rise, further supporting the ongoing recovery of the market.

At Nextimmo, we've already observed a rise in online property estimations and new listings, reflecting renewed interest from both buyers and sellers.


📊 A unique window of opportunity?

The ECB now expects inflation to remain around 2% through 2027, with wage growth moderating. For the real estate market, this creates a window of rare stability after several volatile years. If you're considering buying, selling, or investing in property, now may be an ideal time to move forward.

Add to this the recent extension of housing-related tax incentives in Luxembourg until September 30, 2025, and all conditions seem aligned to turn your real estate project into reality.
