Apartment price per m² and whole-inventory median sale price, in USD. Apartments only, so the series always compares the same kind of property month to month. Where a neighborhood has no apartments for sale the $/m² column is left empty; the median sale price beside it still carries the month. A published month is only recomputed for a stated reason, and that month’s report says so. · Download CSV

Methodology

This page analyzes 16 listings in San Carlos, Colombia.

Metrics are calculated from the active inventory TuLugar monitors across the market — both listings published on TuLugar and active agency supply tracked continuously. They are asking prices, not final transaction or closing prices.

We use medians to reduce the effect of outlier properties; $/m² only includes listings with valid area data. Prices in other currencies are converted to USD using the exchange rate available when the snapshot is refreshed.

Data is recalculated daily and can change when listings are published, updated, or deactivated.
