Dhaka prices vary widely street by street. Understanding the drivers helps you judge whether an asking price is fair.
Location and access
Proximity to main roads, schools and workplaces is the single biggest factor in per-square-foot price.
Building age and condition
Older buildings trade lower, but factor in maintenance, lift condition and any structural work due.
Handover status
Under-construction units are cheaper than ready flats and carry delivery risk. Verify the developer's track record on our developers pages.
How to judge a price
Compare the asking price against recent per-square-foot figures for the same area and size band on our price intelligence pages.
