Estonia has high-quality housing statistics, generated by the Statistical Office of Estonia (SOE). Data on house prices, house sales and construction activities, as well as general economics statistics are all available from the SOE. The Bank of Estonia is also a good source of economics statistics and reviews. Ober-Haus Real Estate Company has market reports, press clippings and other information, but its statistics are not reliable. The Pan-European Institute releases economic reviews.
