Methodology
We analyzed the La Esperilla inventory published by RE/MAX Metropolitana (data pulled August 19, 2026): 100 neighborhood properties, filtering apartments with a public price. We calculated medians and ranges by operation (sale/rent) and by number of bedrooms, plus price per square meter over built area. We use the median because it reflects the "typical" value better than the average, which is more sensitive to extreme values.
