FRANKFURT (Reuters) – A robust rise in euro zone real estate prices is contributing to signs of overvaluation, suggesting the need for policy measures in several countries to curb the property market, the European Central Bank said in a macroprudential bulletin on Wednesday.

“The current analysis indicates that residential real estate vulnerabilities relevant to macroprudential policy are present in a number of euro area countries,” the ECB said.

“The continuation of observed trends in residential real estate markets in some countries suggests that further policy actions remain warranted in the near future,” it added.
