What does price per square foot mean?

Price per square foot divides a sale price by the registered size of the unit, so homes of different sizes can be compared. DXBinteract reports the median across sales.

Formula: Price per sq ft = sale price ÷ registered size (sq ft); 1 sq m = 10.764 sq ft

What should you watch out for?

  • Registered size can include balconies and terraces; villas with large plots have low price per square foot of built area.
