[Photo] 'Apartment Price Increase Transactions Continue in Gangbuk Following Gangnam'

Apartment prices are fluctuating across Seoul. According to the weekly apartment price trends from the Korea Real Estate Board, Seoul housing prices have risen for 11 consecutive weeks from the fourth week of March until last week. Areas such as Nowon, Dobong, and Gangbuk, which had lagged behind Gangnam, have also turned to an upward trend. The 84㎡ exclusive area apartment in Gyeonghuigung Xi, considered the 'flagship apartment' in northern Seoul, was traded for 2.15 billion KRW on the 30th of last month (based on actual transaction prices from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport). This is an increase of 200 million KRW compared to January (1.95 billion KRW).
