Introduction to the evolution of the real estate market
The real estate sector is going through a phase of profound transformation, influenced by various factors such as artificial intelligence, sustainability and changing housing needs. According to a survey conducted by Casavo, in 2025 there will be five main trends to keep an eye on for those working in this field. These changes will not only affect buying and selling decisions, but also the design and management of buildings
.
The growing role of artificial intelligence
Artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a fundamental ally in the real estate sector. Thanks to sophisticated algorithms, it will be possible to predict faults and optimize home maintenance costs. In addition, AI will support urban planning, analyzing data related to traffic, pollution and infrastructure. This information will be crucial to develop more sustainable solutions in line with the needs of green construction
.
Sustainability: a priority for the future
Sustainability is destined to become a key element in the real estate market. By 2030, all homes must reach at least energy class E, prompting both buyers and sellers to consider more sustainable properties. According to the Casavo survey, 34% of sellers have already evaluated properties in class A, B, C or D in the last year, and this trend is bound to grow. Growing environmental awareness is changing the priorities of buyers, who are now looking for greener homes
.
New housing and co-living models
Remote work and an ageing population are changing housing preferences. Demand for peripheral homes, well connected and equipped with outdoor spaces, is expected to increase. In addition, co-living is gaining popularity in Italy, offering housing solutions that integrate spaces for smart working and common areas. These housing models not only respond to practical needs, but also promote greater socialization
among residents.
Urban regeneration and accessibility
Cities are investing in the regeneration of industrial buildings and old neighborhoods to improve quality of life and reduce land consumption. These projects, often supported by inclusion policies, aim to create more accessible housing and to transform abandoned areas into new aggregation centers. This approach is particularly attractive for young people and families, who are looking for livable and dynamic spaces
.
Wellness-oriented design
Finally, the design of the buildings of the future will be increasingly oriented to the well-being of the inhabitants. The use of colors, materials and lights designed to improve the sensory experience will be fundamental. Integrated and invisible technologies will merge with natural materials and soft textures, creating environments that respond to the emotional and practical needs of those who live them. The home of the future will therefore be a perfect balance between aesthetics and functionality.
