Key insights

Deal breakdown by building era

Older buildings and newer developments don't just cost differently — they also make up very different shares of the total deal count. This chart shows what percentage of all this period's apartment deals happened in each era.

14.5% Vecbūve (līdz 1945) (240 deals)
76.3% Padomju sērijveida (1946–1993) (1265 deals)
9.2% Jaunā celtne (1994–2014) (152 deals)
Building era% of dealsDealsAverage priceAvg. €/m²
Vecbūve (līdz 1945) 14.5% 240 43844 € 799 €/m²
Padomju sērijveida (1946–1993) 76.3% 1265 13768 € 310 €/m²
Jaunā celtne (1994–2014) 9.2% 152 75286 € 1483 €/m²

How it's calculated: the building era is determined by the year VZD registered the building as put into service (not the \"building series\" mentioned in listings — that's available for real transaction data too rarely to base reliable statistics on). Eras: Pre-war — {% trans "līdz 1945. gadam" %}; Soviet-era prefab — 1946–1993 ({% trans "galvenokārt tipveida paneļu un ķieģeļu mājas" %}); New building — 1994–2014; Newest developments — 2015 and later. Percentages are calculated from deals where the building year is known; eras with fewer than 5 deals in the period aren't shown separately.
