Methodology

Each quarter we take every active, approved listing on BalayHub that states a floor area (or a lot area where the floor area is missing), divide its asking price by that area, and record the median per city - sale and rent separately. A city enters the index once it has at least 10 published listings, and for high-volume cities only listings from the most recent two months count, so a backlog of older prices can't mask where the market currently trades. Figures are asking prices, not transaction prices.

Frequently asked questions

Where does the BalayHub Price Index data come from?

From active, approved listings on BalayHub at the moment each quarterly snapshot is taken. Figures are median asking prices per square metre - sale and rent are computed separately.

Why medians instead of averages?

A single mispriced listing can distort an average badly. The median - the middle value - stays representative of what a typical listing actually asks.

How often is the index updated?

Once per quarter. Each edition is compared with the previous quarter to show how each city's median moved.

Are these transaction prices?

No - they are asking prices from listings. Asking prices typically run somewhat above final negotiated prices, but their quarter-over-quarter movement tracks the market's direction.
