The Northern Harbour district once again topped Malta’s property sales charts in October 2025, registering 331 final deeds of sale, according to the latest data published by the National Statistics Office (NSO).

The most popular locality for final deeds of sale was St Paul’s Bay, where 138 transactions were recorded – more than double the figures seen in most other localities. Other busy localities within the Northern Harbour district included Sliema and Gżira.

Across the country, apartments remained the most sought-after property type, with 547 sold during the month. These were followed by maisonettes (129), houses including villas and terraced houses (156), and garages (320).

In total, October saw 1,287 final deeds of sale registered, marking a steady continuation of activity in Malta’s real estate market and an overall increase of 14 per cent in final deeds of sales.

Meanwhile, the number of promise of sale agreements – which typically signal upcoming transactions – also reflected strong demand. The Northern Harbour district again led with the highest number of agreements, while Birkirkara stood out as the most popular individual locality.

The data suggests sustained momentum across Malta’s central and northern regions, where accessibility and ongoing development continue to drive market activity.
