The housing costs For the third quarter of the year they reached an average price of S/7,454 per square meter, lor which represents an increase of 3.9% compared to the same period of time last yearreported the Peruvian Chamber of Construction (Capeco). Likewise, in relation to the second quarter, the increase has been 2.1%.
In detail, between July and September, the homes in East Lima have presented the greatest increase compared to 2022, advancing by 16%. It is followed by South Lima (5.9%), North Lima (3.0%), Modern Lima (2.3%), Top Lima (2.2%) and Central Lima (1.6%). In Callao the increase has been 1.6%.
“What has happened is that there has been a strong growth in costs, the curves show that between 2021 and 2022 construction grew 20% or 25%. These prices have not been reflected in the increase in bond values and housing prices. So, where it has risen the least has been in Top, Modern and Central Lima, where the greatest amount of supply is because it is no longer possible to raise values further,” indicated Guido Valdivia, executive director of Capeco, during the presentation of the Economic Report of Construction No. 71.
