Methodology & data sources
m2map aggregates Baku property listings in one place and shows each price against its district market. This page explains where the data comes from, how it is cleaned, and how the price figures are computed.
Data sources
Listings are aggregated from Azerbaijan's leading real-estate sites:
- bina.az
- tap.az
- emlak.az
- lalafo.az
- ev10.az
Deduplication
The same apartment is often posted on several sites, or repeatedly on one. m2map merges these into a single group by address, coordinates, area, room count, and floor, so the market count is not inflated.
Merging is automatic and keeps apartments on different floors separate — two distinct units in the same building are never shown as one listing.
How price fairness is computed
For each district and property type, the median price per square metre (₼/m²) is computed across active listings. The median is more robust than the mean because it is not pulled by the highest and lowest prices.
A listing's ₼/m² is compared to its district median and the listing is flagged as below market, at market, or above market. The comparison runs only for listings priced in manat (₼).
Update frequency
Listings are re-checked continuously. A listing removed from its source is marked inactive, and its page returns HTTP 410 (Gone) to search engines.
Coverage & limitations
Coverage today is Baku and surrounding districts. Price figures are based on active listings only — these are asking prices, not closed-transaction prices.
Listings without coordinates or area are excluded from the median computation.
