About this data

Rent figures are annualised from registered lease contracts and reported as medians, which are more representative than averages in markets with luxury outliers. Asking prices reflect live portal listings. Data as of November 2026. Based on annualised residential lease contracts (monthly rent x 12), using the last 24 months of data where available. Figures are aggregated market statistics for research and should not be treated as a valuation of any individual property.
