  Tras una subida del 5% en 2019, los expertos pronostican que en 2020 los pisos seguirán encareciéndose, pero a menor ritmo por la debilidad de la demanda, lo que frenará las compraventas. Los alquileres aumentarán un 5%. El mercado de la vivienda acumula subidas pronunciadas consecutivas desde 2014 y se prepara para hacer un alto en el camino. Esta es la previsión que maneja el consenso de expertos del sector inmobiliario, que insiste en que si algo va a caracterizar 2020 es la moderación y la prudencia.Estos criterios están estrechamente relacionados con la ralentización económica y con la incertidumbre que generan las medidas en materia de vivienda que pueda poner en marcha próximamente el recién formado Gobierno de coalición entre PSOE y Unidas Podemos, así como las autonomías y los grandes ayuntamientos.  ...
