Checked 26 October 2026 · Source: published formula and worked arithmetic. Figures are fictional.
A fictional 3,000,000-baht listing with 40 square metres is 75,000 per square metre. A second at 3,200,000 with 50 square metres is 64,000. The second costs 200,000 more overall but 11,000 less per square metre. Use matching area definitions, then compare condition, building and actual transaction costs as separate facts.
