Price per square meter

—

Always compare like with like: built area with built area. A listing that adds terrace or parking to the area makes the price per m² look artificially low.

Price per square meter is the price divided by the area. Enter the price and the square meters (or square feet): the calculator gives you the price per m² and per square foot, so you can compare properties of different sizes.

The formula

  • Price per m² = price ÷ square meters.
  • Square feet to m²: sq ft ÷ 10.7639. m² to square feet: m² × 10.7639.

Example: a 90 m² apartment at 75,000 dollars costs 75,000 ÷ 90 = 833.33 dollars per m², or 77.42 dollars per square foot.

Comparing Venezuelan listings from the U.S.

Venezuelan listings use square meters; U.S. buyers think in square feet. Having both figures avoids mistakes when you compare an apartment in Caracas or Valencia with prices in Miami or Houston. Always compare the same kind of area, in the same neighborhood and property type, and check the area in the title deed, not just the listing.

Questions people ask

How many square feet are in a square meter?

One square meter is 10.7639 square feet. Multiply square meters by 10.7639 to get square feet; divide square feet by 10.7639 to get square meters.

Which area should I use to compare?

The same one for every property, ideally the built or usable area stated in the title deed. If a listing adds terraces, balconies or parking spaces, the price per m² looks lower than it really is.
