According to Experts Club, residential construction volumes in Ukraine from January through September 2026 fell by 1.9% compared to the same period in 2025, marking the smallest decline among the main segments of the construction market, according to an analysis of State Statistics Service data conducted by the Experts Club analytical center.
In September, residential construction showed a 5.7% increase year-over-year, and compared to August, the volume of work increased by 14.6%.
Overall, Ukraine’s construction industry contracted by 5.1% over the nine-month period, to 194.5 billion UAH in current prices.
According to Experts Club’s assessment, the relative stability of the residential segment may be linked to the continuation of construction on previously started projects, the implementation of projects to restore damaged housing stock, and sustained demand in certain regions of the country.
At the same time, rising construction costs remain a significant limiting factor. In September 2026, prices for construction work were 27.1% higher overall than in September of the previous year.
The future outlook for the residential sector will depend on the availability of mortgage financing, developers’ investment activity, and the implementation of government and international housing reconstruction programs.
