April 2026 city benchmarks

Property.com.ve's April 2026 price indexes report Caracas at a $211,680 median residential asking price across 5,976 tracked listings, Margarita at $95,000 across 299 listings, and Valencia at $125,000 across 281 listings. Apartment-specific medians were $170,000 in Caracas, $107,500 in Margarita, and $105,000 in Valencia.

Cheapest and premium markets

Valencia and Margarita generally screen lower on broad residential price-per-square-meter indexes than Caracas, while prime Caracas, waterfront Margarita, and Lecheria-style coastal assets can command premiums because of location, services, parking, and lifestyle demand.

How to use the figures

Use medians to compare markets, then verify real transaction values through local brokers, counsel, registry records where available, and recent comparable sales. Asking prices are not closing prices.

Frequently asked questions

Are these Venezuela real estate prices appraisals?

No. They are directional figures from sampled public listings and should not be treated as formal appraisals or confirmed transaction prices.

Why use price per square meter?

Price per square meter helps normalize apartments and houses of different sizes, but it should only be compared within similar neighborhoods, building quality, services, and property types.

Why can asking prices differ so much in Venezuela?

Prices vary because of neighborhood liquidity, building services, water and power reliability, parking, seller urgency, documentation quality, and whether the listing price is realistic or aspirational.
