Lithuania: Economic freedom index, 5-year change

Increased economic freedom is strongly associated with high GDP growth, and therefore with rises in residential property prices. Changes in a country’s score on the Heritage Foundation’s freedom index are calculated by the Global Property Guide to produce a 5-point rating:

• Greatly Improved
• Improved
• Nuetral
• Worse
• Much Worse

Source: Calculated using figures from The Heritage Foundation and the Wall Street Journal

Lithuania does not publish an official house price or rents time-series. However the real estate firm Inreal publishes annual prices and rents for Vilnius for a few years. General economics statistics for Lithuania are published by the Bank of Lithuania and the Statistikos Departamentas, which keeps construction and stock of dwellings figures, but no house prices or rents.
