Dhaka Flat Price is one of the fast-growing cities in Asia and the demand for accommodation is increasing day by day, making apartments in Dhaka more expensive. Buying an apartment in Dhaka is likely to be one of your biggest purchases in your life and therefore it’s important to know what are the top factors that influence property prices. In this BestBari article, we discuss the three most significant contributing factors that influence Dhaka flat prices.
1. Location
As the old saying goes, it’s all about location, location, location! Location is the most significant factor that influences the property prices in Dhaka. The location and demographics of the neighbourhood plays a very important role in determining the desirability and price of a property.
For example, properties that are in close proximity to good schools, shopping centres, cafes and restaurants tend to attract more buyers as have higher demand, which then drives up the prices. The status of the suburb and demographics of the local population plays an important part, for example are there mostly professionals, expatriates and retirees living there.
Some factors can actually have a negative influence on property prices such as close proximity to power plants, homeless shelters and bars. In addition, consider the accessibility to transport and commuter link to offices for essential for daily living and travelling to work.
Also, take note of the trend of the average apartment price when researching your ideal location when purchasing a flat in Dhaka. For example you may have noticed that property prices in areas close to the metro rail in Dhaka city have been appreciating in value due to the convenient commuter network to commercial hubs in Dhaka.
2. Condition and features
The overall condition, features and styling of a property plays an important role in determining its appeal and value. Certain styles of homes can get better prices that others, which is why the styling and presentation is very important.

The features and amenities of a property are important since they affect the overall lifestyle and appeal to live in a certain property.

3. Economic and market conditions
Although economic and market conditions are outside your control, they do significantly impact the demand and prices of apartments in Dhaka. If there is higher economic growth in a certain areas, there becomes more businesses, jobs, income and therefore the desirability to live in that area, which then increase the demand and prices for homes.

The interest rate is also an important factor that directly affects property prices since a lot of home buyers have home loans. Low interest rates mean it’s easier for property buyers to borrow, which increases the demand and prices for property. However, higher interest rates make it more difficult to borrow, which lowers demand and property prices.
