Asking prices from live listings; contracts in Malta typically close 10–15% below ask. See how to value a property for the method.How to use these numbers
Buyers: the spread between neighbouring localities is your opportunity — the same budget moves dramatically between towns ten minutes apart. Anchor your negotiation on the locality average, not the listing's ask, and check whether your target has dropped its price recently. Sellers: price against this month's live competition, not last year's anecdotes. Listings priced inside the locality average move in weeks; overpriced stock accumulates days-on-market that buyers can now see. Renters: rent growth has been running at 2–4% annually — if your renewal proposes more, these averages are your negotiating table.About this data
