For a country where a large share of household wealth sits in property, and where bank lending to the sector runs into hundreds of billions of rupees, what happens in real estate ripples through the entire economy. When the market slows down, bank balance sheets feel it. When it heats up, government revenue from registration fees and capital gains surges. For policymakers at Nepal Rastra Bank, for lending officers at commercial banks, and for anyone tracking macroeconomic stability, understanding property market trends is not optional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The report published by NRB&#8217;s Economic Research Department pulls together data from 135 Land Revenue Offices across the country, covering three full fiscal years from 2079\/80 through 2081\/82. It focuses specifically on &#8220;rajinama&#8221; transactions, the category used to capture voluntary property transfers, which is the closest proxy we have for actual buy-sell activity in Nepal&#8217;s land market. What follows is a thorough breakdown of what the data shows, where the surprises are, and what it means for the sectors that depend on a stable property market.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"transaction-volume-the-seasonal-rhythm-and-the-rebound-signal\">Transaction Volume: The Seasonal Rhythm and the Rebound Signal<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you look at raw transaction numbers across the twelve quarters covered in this report, the first thing that jumps out is the seasonality. Every fiscal year follows the same basic shape: the first quarter (Shrawan to Ashwin) records the fewest transactions, likely because the monsoon disrupts everything from site visits to paperwork at Land Revenue Offices. Activity picks up in the second quarter, builds through the third, and peaks in the fourth. This pattern held across all three years without exception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The more interesting story is what happened between years. The fourth quarter of FY 2081\/82 recorded 1,14,769 rajinama transactions, the highest single-quarter figure in the entire dataset. To put that in perspective, the same quarter in FY 2079\/80 recorded 98,270 transactions. That is a 16.8 percent increase over two years, which suggests the market has not just recovered from its post-boom slowdown but is pushing past previous highs in terms of sheer volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"465\" src=\"https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart1_quarterly_transactions-1024x465.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-50529\" srcset=\"https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart1_quarterly_transactions-1024x465.png 1024w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart1_quarterly_transactions-300x136.png 300w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart1_quarterly_transactions-1536x697.png 1536w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart1_quarterly_transactions.png 1785w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the year-on-year growth rates tell a more cautious story. While the raw numbers are going up, the pace of growth has been slowing. The Y-o-Y growth in transaction numbers peaked at 26.71 percent in Q1 of FY 2080\/81 and then steadily declined, even turning negative at minus 9.3 percent in Q1 of FY 2081\/82. Only in Q4 of 2081\/82 did the Y-o-Y number turn positive again, at 8.15 percent. The takeaway for anyone in banking or policy: the headline numbers look strong, but the acceleration is fading. This is a market that is growing, but at a normalizing pace rather than a booming one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"border-left-color:#1a5276;border-left-width:4px;padding-left:20px\"><strong>Key Takeaway for Lenders:<\/strong> The average quarterly transaction count over three years was 87,354. Any quarter significantly below this figure (as seen in Q1 periods) likely signals seasonal slowdown rather than structural weakness. Lending decisions pegged to quarterly snapshots without adjusting for seasonality risk misjudging the market.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"declared-value-where-the-money-actually-flows\">Declared Value: Where the Money Actually Flows<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Transaction counts tell you how many times property changed hands. Declared value, or &#8220;thaili&#8221; in the official terminology, tells you how much money moved. These two metrics do not always move in lockstep, and the divergence matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Total declared value under rajinama transactions rose from Rs. 58.66 billion in Q1 of FY 2079\/80 to Rs. 127.61 billion in Q4 of FY 2081\/82. That is more than a doubling in three years. The average quarterly declared value across the twelve quarters was Rs. 86.74 billion, with six quarters exceeding that average.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"465\" src=\"https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart2_declared_value-1024x465.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-50530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart2_declared_value-1024x465.png 1024w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart2_declared_value-300x136.png 300w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart2_declared_value-1536x697.png 1536w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart2_declared_value.png 1785w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Q4 2081\/82 figure of Rs. 127.61 billion is notable not just for its size but for how quickly it climbed. The preceding quarter (Q3) recorded Rs. 100.07 billion, meaning there was a 27.52 percent jump in a single quarter. That kind of spike deserves scrutiny. It could reflect genuine demand. It could also reflect year-end transaction bunching, where buyers and sellers rush to close deals before the fiscal year ends. Or it could reflect rising declared values as minimum government valuation rates (nyunatam mulyankan dar) get adjusted upward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For banking professionals who track collateral values and loan-to-value ratios, the trajectory of declared values has direct implications. If declared values are rising primarily because of valuation rate adjustments rather than genuine market price appreciation, it creates a divergence between book values and realizable values. This is worth monitoring closely.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"who-is-buying-what-the-land-size-breakdown\">Who is Buying What: The Land Size Breakdown<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The NRB report breaks rajinama transactions into four land-size categories: less than 2.5 aana, 2.5 to 10 aana, 10 to 20 aana, and more than 20 aana. The composition has remained remarkably stable over three years, which itself is a useful finding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"349\" src=\"https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart4_area_composition-1024x349.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-50531\" srcset=\"https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart4_area_composition-1024x349.png 1024w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart4_area_composition-300x102.png 300w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart4_area_composition-1536x523.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mid-sized plots of 2.5 to 10 aana account for the largest share at roughly 43 to 45 percent of all transactions. Plots larger than 20 aana come second at about 29 to 31 percent. The 10 to 20 aana range holds steady at around 18 percent, while the smallest plots (under 2.5 aana) make up just 8 to 9 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Land Size Category<\/th><th>FY 2079\/80<\/th><th>FY 2080\/81<\/th><th>FY 2081\/82<\/th><th>Avg Share<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>&lt; 2.5 aana<\/td><td>26,986<\/td><td>27,624<\/td><td>28,915<\/td><td>~8%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2.5-10 aana<\/td><td>1,34,616<\/td><td>1,54,836<\/td><td>1,64,418<\/td><td>~43%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>10-20 aana<\/td><td>56,344<\/td><td>67,219<\/td><td>66,294<\/td><td>~18%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>&gt; 20 aana<\/td><td>79,351<\/td><td>1,14,002<\/td><td>1,07,647<\/td><td>~30%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Total<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>2,97,297<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>3,63,681<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>3,67,274<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>100%<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dominance of the 2.5 to 10 aana range reflects the residential sweet spot. These are the plot sizes that typical Nepali households target for building a home. The fact that plots larger than 20 aana constitute nearly a third of all transactions nationally is driven almost entirely by Madhesh Province, where agricultural and industrial land parcels are common.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-provincial-picture-madhesh-leads-in-volume-bagmati-leads-in-value\">The Provincial Picture: Madhesh Leads in Volume, Bagmati Leads in Value<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The provincial breakdown reveals one of the most striking patterns in the entire report: the complete disconnect between where transactions happen and where the money is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Madhesh Province consistently recorded the highest number of rajinama transactions across all three fiscal years. In FY 2081\/82, Madhesh logged over 1,04,027 transactions, followed by Lumbini at 78,248 and Koshi at 74,638. Bagmati came in at just 57,036 transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"508\" src=\"https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart3_provincial_transactions-1024x508.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-50532\" srcset=\"https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart3_provincial_transactions-1024x508.png 1024w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart3_provincial_transactions-300x149.png 300w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart3_provincial_transactions-1536x762.png 1536w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart3_provincial_transactions.png 1785w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But when you look at declared value, the picture flips. Bagmati Province recorded a declared value of Rs. 51.37 billion in Q4 of FY 2081\/82 alone. That single quarter in Bagmati exceeds what most other provinces generated in an entire year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"507\" src=\"https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart7_provincial_declared_value-1024x507.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-50533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart7_provincial_declared_value-1024x507.png 1024w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart7_provincial_declared_value-300x148.png 300w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart7_provincial_declared_value.png 1485w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Province<\/th><th>Q4 Transactions<\/th><th>Declared Value (Rs.

For banks with branch networks spread across these provinces, this means that a &#8220;real estate loan&#8221; in Bagmati and a &#8220;real estate loan&#8221; in Karnali are fundamentally different risk propositions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"border-left-color:#1a5276;border-left-width:4px;padding-left:20px\"><strong>For Risk Officers:<\/strong> Karnali and Sudurpashchim together account for less than 5 percent of national transaction volume and less than 4 percent of declared value. Collateral-backed lending in these provinces faces thin-market risk.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"metropolitan-and-submetropolitan-cities\">Metropolitan and Sub-Metropolitan Cities<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nepal has six metropolitan cities and eleven sub-metropolitan cities. Metropolitan cities accounted for about 4.1 percent of total rajinama transactions nationally, but roughly 13 percent of total declared value. Sub-metropolitan cities accounted for about 9.85 percent of transactions and 9.28 percent of declared value.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bharatpur-not-kathmandu-leads-metro-transactions\">Bharatpur, Not Kathmandu, Leads Metro Transactions<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among metropolitan cities, Bharatpur recorded the highest number of rajinama transactions, followed by Birgunj and Pokhara. Kathmandu and Lalitpur recorded comparatively fewer transactions. People buy land in Kathmandu and hold it. In cities like Bharatpur and Birgunj, where urbanization is still in an expansive phase, turnover is naturally higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Transaction value in metropolitan cities more than doubled from Rs. 7.45 billion in Q1 of FY 2079\/80 to Rs. 19.09 billion in Q4 of FY 2081\/82. In the sub-metropolitan segment, the fourth quarter of 2081\/82 totaled Rs. 12.07 billion, and the recovery in Y-o-Y growth has been stronger than in metro cities.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-lending-side-real-estate-loans-and-housing-finance\">The Lending Side: Real Estate Loans and Housing Finance<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For banking professionals, the loan data may be the most directly actionable part of this report. Nepal Rastra Bank tracks two categories: &#8220;Real Estate Loan&#8221; and &#8220;Residential Home Loan&#8221; (capped at Rs. 20 million in reporting, though revised to Rs. 30 million).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"398\" src=\"https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart5_loan_trends-1024x398.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-50534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart5_loan_trends-1024x398.png 1024w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart5_loan_trends-300x117.png 300w, https:\/\/basobaas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/chart5_loan_trends-1536x597.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Between FY 2077\/78 and 2081\/82, real estate loans grew by 72.41 percent, from Rs. 484.4 billion to Rs. 835.2 billion.

It fell sharply to Rs. 8.2 billion in Q2 of FY 2080\/81. Over FY 2081\/82, total revenue averaged around Rs. 12.3 billion per quarter, totaling about Rs. 49 billion for the full year. Still well below peak levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The correlation between declared value growth and revenue growth is 0.43. Revenue depends not just on how much land is transacted but on what rates the government applies and how effectively collection happens.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-does-this-all-mean-going-forward\">What Does This All Mean Going Forward?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, Nepal&#8217;s real estate market is growing but normalizing. The explosive growth rates of FY 2078\/79 are behind us. Transaction volumes are at or near record highs but growth rates are in single digits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Second, the provincial disparity is enormous and likely to widen. Bagmati&#8217;s share of declared value continues to grow. A single large default in Bagmati could dwarf losses from dozens of defaults in Karnali.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Third, the banking system&#8217;s exposure to real estate is at an all-time high. Over Rs. 2 lakh crore (Rs. 2,070 billion) in combined real estate and home loans is not a number to be complacent about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fourth, the government is leaving money on the table. Declared values have more than doubled while revenue has barely recovered to Rs. 12 to 15 billion per quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, the data tells us something about urbanization in Nepal. Growth in the property market is shifting away from traditional centres. The next decade may be defined by what happens in the emerging urban corridors of the Terai and in rapidly growing towns that are only now formalizing their land markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><small><strong>Data Sources:<\/strong> Department of Land Management and Archives (DOLMA), Inland Revenue Department, NRB Banking and Financial Statistics | <strong>Report by:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nrb.org.np\/\">Nepal Rastra Bank<\/a>, Economic Research Department<\/small><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><small><strong>Data Source and Disclaimer:<\/strong> All data sourced from &#8220;A Report on the Status of Real Estate Market in Nepal&#8221; by Nepal Rastra Bank&#8217;s Economic Research Department, using DOLMA, Inland Revenue Department, and NRB Banking Statistics data.
