† One agency supplies more than a third of these listings, so treat the median as indicative. Our town pages publish a median only with at least 8 plots and no agency above a third; this index shows every cell with at least 5 listings, with that share alongside.

Journalists and researchers are welcome to quote these figures with a link. Please give the edition date: asking prices move.

How is the index calculated?

  • Source: every live listing on Perch & Acre on the date shown, built from the public adverts of south-coast agencies, each credited on its listing page.
  • Types: land is plots of land; houses and villas are priced per perch of plot with the house included; estates per perch of the whole parcel. Commercial property is left out.
  • Statistic: the unweighted median of asking price divided by plot size in perches, with the lowest and highest value and the median total price.
  • Thresholds: a town and type cell is shown only with at least 5 listings. Agencies on review hold (aqua-ceylon-properties) are left out, as on the rest of the site.
  • Ranges show the lowest and highest listing as advertised. Galle Fort houses on small plots run far above the rest per perch, and estates far below; a total asking price under LKR 1,000,000 is treated as an entry error and left out.
  • Limits: asking prices run above sale prices; samples are small and supply is clustered by agency, so one agency can move a town's median.
  • Cadence: a new edition each month; past editions stay online unchanged.
