Abstract: Few macroeconomic variables generate as much interest and debate as house prices. Households, firms and policymakers alike watch house prices closely. In recent years, house prices in Malta have risen considerably, nearly doubling between 2000 and 2015, although with a significant degree of variability. This has led to growing concerns about the possible existence of a housing bubble.
