Residential Property Prices API

How house prices are moving across the world's economies, read live from the Bank for International Settlements' Selected Residential Property Prices dataset. For roughly 60 countries the BIS publishes a quarterly residential property price index — both nominal and real (inflation-adjusted) — together with its year-on-year change. The latest endpoint returns every country's most recent reading at once — the nominal and real index plus the nominal and real year-on-year growth — sortable by nominal or real YoY so you instantly see which housing markets are heating up and which are cooling once you strip out inflation. The country endpoint returns a single country's latest reading; the history endpoint returns its quarterly index time series (nominal and real) so you can chart a market over time. Countries are given as ISO-2 codes (US, DE, GB, JP) or common names (xm is the euro area). The nominal index is the headline price level; the real index is deflated by consumer prices, so a negative real YoY means prices are falling after inflation even when the nominal index still rises. This is the real-estate / property-price macro data-cut — distinct from the FX-rate, central-bank, yield-curve, commodity and equity-index APIs in the catalogue.
