Demand has been driven mainly by migration within the country and strong demand for prime properties by foreigners; demand for investment properties is also believed to play a significant role," according to a 2018 report released by the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
Residential construction activity is increasing rapidly, but is still below peak levels.
