Rental prices in Romania’s major cities have surged, squeezing renters’ budgets and creating a tight housing market. In Cluj‑Napoca, a one‑bedroom unit averages €400 per month, while two‑bedroom apartments cost about €560 and three‑bedrooms top €700; central‑area rentals can reach €1,000. Craiova’s two‑room units are now €500, and rents in Constanța and Iași remain unchanged from last year. Students report significant effort to secure accommodation, and real‑estate agent Sorin Sucală says a fully furnished two‑room apartment in the city centre rents for €750 per month. The rising demand is driven largely by an influx of students, including many foreigners, intensifying competition on the rental market.
