According to estimates of the public association Consumers in Property Market, currently the mid-price index is about 1,312 dollars per 1 square meter. The apartments, which cost below the average price, amounted to more than 50 % of the total portfolio. According to estimates, within a month the average price of apartments offered for sale amounted to 118.2 thousand U.S. dollars.
The most attractive areas of the capital were still Yasamal , Nasimi , Narimanov and Khatai - more than 75 % of the total share. The most popular are 1 and 2 room apartments, while the demand for 3, 4 and 5 room apartments declined.
