This text examines asking prices for apartments in Krastova Vada in August 2026. Here, the typical price means the value in the middle of the sorted asking prices (the median).
For sales, the typical price is €3,011/sq m, and the typical total asking value is €335,155. The price per square metre is above Sofia’s level, while the total asking price is a separate observed indicator for the same month.
Asking Prices for Sale
In August 2026, the typical asking price for apartment sales in Krastova Vada is €3,011/sq m, and the typical total asking price is €335,155. These are asking values observed during the reporting month, not transactions and not current availability.
The central 80% range per square metre is between €2,413/sq m and €3,912/sq m. These two values are P10 and P90 and outline the inner range of observed listings, but are not the minimum and maximum.
This shows that the data reflects both a specific typical level and a relatively wide interval around it. The interval itself indicates that the observed listings are not concentrated only around a single value.
How Levels Are Changing
The typical sale price is up by +0.4% in August compared to July, and also +0.4% in August compared to May. For Sofia, the change is +0.4% in August versus July and 0% in August versus May.
On a one-month horizon, Krastova Vada and Sofia have the same indicated change. On a three-month horizon, Krastova Vada is +0.4 percentage points above Sofia, since the district is at +0.4% and the city level is at 0%.
For sales properties, the number of linked properties is 1,239 in August, compared to 1,279 in July and 1,165 in May. This is -3.1% for August versus July and +6.4% for August versus May; in Sofia, the changes are -1.3% and +8.8%.
In other words, the typical price moves moderately, while the number of linked properties shows different directions in the two comparable horizons. It is important to read each horizon separately: August versus July and August versus May are different comparisons.
Comparison with Selected Districts
Compared to Sofia, the typical price in Krastova Vada is higher by +€421/sq m or +16.2%. This is a comparison with the city level, but not a city ranking and does not indicate a place in any overall classification.
At the same time, the district is cheaper than all the more expensive districts listed in the brief:
- cheaper than Doktorski Pametnik by -€2,619/sq m or -46.5%
- cheaper than Ivan Vazov by -€1,189/sq m or -28.3%
- cheaper than Yavorov by -€1,155/sq m or -27.7%
- cheaper than Izgrev by -€1,092/sq m or -26.6%
- cheaper than Iztok by -€989/sq m or -24.7%
- cheaper than Lozenets by -€896/sq m or -22.9%
This is the material counter-clarification: a level above Sofia can coexist with a lower level than some of the selected districts. Therefore, the comparison should be read only as a series of pairs, not as an overall place in a city ranking.
We compare only the selected districts from the city, ordered by higher typical asking price. Geographical proximity is not established, and the full ranking for Sofia is not available.

|---|---|---|
| Doktorski Pametnik | 5,630 | +87% |
| Ivan Vazov | 4,200 | +39,5% |

Asking Rents
The typical rent for an apartment in Krastova Vada in August 2026 is €895/month. The central 80% of observed rents are between €650/month and €1,400/month.
The typical asking rent is +1.8% compared to July and +5.3% compared to May. In both comparable horizons, this change is stronger than the movement in the typical sale price: by +1.4 percentage points in August versus July and by +4.9 percentage points in August versus May.
Here, the data show a different rate of change between rents and sale asking prices. This is an observation of listings, not of concluded contracts.
Listings and Linked Properties
In August, 1,462 sale listings and 1,239 linked properties were observed. For rents, the numbers are 552 listings and 417 linked properties. In Sofia, 29,691 sale listings and 23,390 linked properties were observed.
These counts include listings without a linked property, and the completeness of linking is unknown. Therefore, they describe observed listings and linked properties, but do not allow calculation of listings per property, duplicate listings, new listings, or transactions.
For sales, linked properties in Krastova Vada decreased by -3.1% in August compared to July, while in Sofia the decline is -1.3%. For August versus May, the district is at +6.4%, and Sofia at +8.8%.
In this comparison, it is important to keep the two horizons separate: August versus July and August versus May. They are not interchangeable and should not be combined in a single summary.
Conclusion
In August 2026, Krastova Vada has typical asking levels above Sofia, but below some of the selected more expensive districts. The change in sale listings is small and has the same sign in both the short and longer horizon, while rents are rising more noticeably.
The overall picture is of a market with a visibly above-city price level, but without data on transactions, demand, or current availability to explain the movement. Therefore, the text remains a description of observed asking prices, not a forecast.
