The residential panel at Bratislava Property Forum 2026 showed a market gradually stabilising after a period of sharp volatility, with rising costs, shifting buyer behaviour and structural imbalances continuing to shape both demand and supply. Moderated by Marián Škvarek, CEO of Realpad, the discussion brought together developers, financiers and investors to assess trends in Bratislava and regional cities, with a particular focus on affordability, the growing role of rental housing and the impact of technology and ESG on future projects.
