The cost of guessing

A 5% pricing error on a €300k property is €15,000 lost.

Most buyers rely on agent estimates, outdated listings, and gut feeling. PropTren Premium gives you the same data that institutional investors use — for less than a coffee per week.

In hidden costs, taxes & lost rental yield

One year of Premium costs €149. Transfer taxes alone vary by up to 10% between countries, and picking a low-yield region can cost thousands in missed rental income every year. It's not an expense — it's due diligence on the biggest purchase of your life.

Common questions
Where does the data come from?

Official national statistics offices: INE (Spain & Portugal), ISTAT (Italy), ELSTAT (Greece), and INSEE (France). We process transaction volumes, price indices, rental benchmarks, and demographic flows — updated monthly.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. One click, no questions asked. Your access stays active until the end of your billing period. No lock-in contracts, no cancellation fees.

I'm just starting to look — is it too early for Premium?

Actually, the research phase is when Premium saves you the most time. Instead of spending 40+ hours comparing regions on scattered websites, you get a single dashboard with everything side by side. Most users start in research mode and stay through purchase.

How is this different from Idealista or Rightmove?

Listing sites show you asking prices from sellers. PropTren shows actual transaction data from government registries — what properties really sold for, not what someone hopes to get. We also cover trends, momentum, and rental yields which no listing site provides across multiple countries.

What payment methods do you accept?

Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and SEPA Direct Debit. All payments processed securely by Stripe.

Every week you wait is another week of
flying blind.
