In September 2026 in Vitosha (Sofia), the clearest contrast in sales is between one-room and four-room apartments. Observed properties are 39 and 142, respectively, with their numbers changing by +30.0% and +6.0% compared with June 2026. However, prices do not move in the same direction: one-room apartments are at €2,382/sq m, and four-room apartments — at €2,603/sq m.

More Observed Properties, Different Price Movements
Compared with June 2026, the typical price per sq m for one-room apartments is up +1.2%, while for four-room apartments the difference is -1.6%. The stronger increase in observed numbers in the first segment is accompanied by a small price change. The month-on-month comparison shows a different picture: compared with August 2026, one-room apartments are up +14.7% in number and down -9.6% in price per sq m. For four-room apartments, the changes are smaller — +1.4% and +1.8%, respectively.
The increase in observed properties for sale also includes two-room and three-room apartments. In September, these are 471 and 575 properties, respectively. Compared with June 2026, the numbers change by +27.0% and +28.3%, while prices per sq m are -0.1% and +2.0%. Thus, in these segments as well, the marked increase in numbers is paired with small price changes.
What Budgets the Listings Show
For one-room apartments, the typical asking price for the entire property is €110,425, and for four-room apartments — €471,500. The price per sq m ranges are €1,943/sq m to €2,945/sq m and €1,876/sq m to €3,387/sq m, respectively. These ranges cover the central 80% of observed asking prices. Four-room apartments combine the highest typical budget for the entire apartment with a lower price per sq m than two-room and three-room apartments.
For two-room apartments, the reference is €196,229 for the entire property and €2,684/sq m, with a range from €2,075/sq m to €3,584/sq m. For three-room apartments, typical levels are €319,000 and €2,749/sq m, with a range from €2,128/sq m to €3,644/sq m. Three-room apartments have the highest typical price per sq m among the apartments considered, but the ranges of the two segments overlap significantly. Therefore, an individual listing is more meaningfully compared with its apartment type than only with the overall neighbourhood level.
