Seoul apartment listings rose to about 78,000 by October 26, up 29.5% from August 3 across all 25 districts, according to Asil data cited by Newsis. A real estate expert said inventory that first accumulated in Gangnam has spread to other parts of Seoul, potentially slowing the city’s price gains, while roughly 6,000 upcoming homes in Gangnam and Seocho are also adding rental choices.
Southern Gyeonggi showed a different pattern, with weekly prices rising more than 0.4% in semiconductor belt areas such as Seongnam, Hwaseong and Suwon, alongside gains of 0.53% in Gunpo and 0.47% in Uiwang. The outlook is based on private-platform data and one expert’s analysis, so it indicates a possible regional divergence rather than a confirmed forecast for the wider housing market.
