Apartment prices per square metre in Czech cities in 2026
Price per square metre is the cleanest way to compare cities. It strips out differences in floor area and shows what a home actually costs in a given location. The figures below are median asking prices for apartments from active sale listings collected on Seeki, priced in Czech koruna, not transaction prices. The distinction matters: an asking price is what the seller wants, while a transaction price is what is actually paid, usually a few per cent lower.
Median asking price per m² by city
The data covers apartments listed for sale, priced in koruna. For each city we give the median and the range between the first and third quartile, the band that holds the middle half of listings.

Prague is in a class of its own, with a median close to 170 thousand koruna per metre. Brno is the only other city above 130 thousand. Below them sits a broad middle tier: the Central Bohemian commuter towns of Kladno and Mladá Boleslav, drawn up by Prague demand, alongside regional capitals such as Hradec Králové, Pardubice, Olomouc, České Budějovice, Plzeň and Liberec, most between 85 and 110 thousand. The cheapest apartments are in the industrial north-west, where Most, Chomutov, Teplice and Karviná all sit below 50 thousand koruna per metre.
How this compares to the previous decade
Czech housing has been one of Europe's fastest-appreciating markets. According to the Czech National Bank, residential property prices in late 2024 were roughly 120 per cent higher than in 2015, more than a doubling in nominal terms, and still around 44 per cent higher even after adjusting for inflation. The Bank also flags one of the steepest declines in housing affordability anywhere in the EU over that period.
Prague shows the change most sharply. In the mid-2010s, apartment asking prices in the capital sat around 60 to 70 thousand koruna per metre, drawing on figures published by the Czech Statistical Office in its regular report on the prices of tracked property types. Today the median on Seeki is close to 170 thousand. Regional cities that started from a lower base, such as Olomouc, Hradec Králové and Zlín, saw the steepest proportional gains, as cheap credit and migration into regional centres pushed demand well beyond local supply.
Primary versus secondary market
The primary market is the trade in units sold for the first time by a developer. The secondary market is the onward resale of homes that have already been lived in. Asking prices on the primary market are usually higher than the secondary market in the same location, because they cover new units in developer-finish condition and often with lower running costs. The medians in the table above combine both markets, so for a specific decision it is worth narrowing the search to one of them on the price per m² page for Czechia.
Methodology
The figures come from active apartment sale listings aggregated by Seeki as of the publication date. Only listings priced in koruna with a stated price per metre between 5,000 and 400,000 Kč are included, which filters out erroneous and extreme entries. For each city we present the median rather than the mean, because the median is less distorted by a handful of very expensive listings. The table covers cities with at least 100 active listings. In total, Seeki covers more than 18 thousand apartment sale listings across more than 1,200 localities in Czechia. The data refreshes continuously as new listings arrive, so a city's median can change between readings. These are asking prices, not transaction prices.

Open the calculatorFrequently asked questions
Are these transaction prices or asking prices?
Asking prices. They show what sellers want in active listings. The price a home actually sells for is usually lower, and the gap between asking and transaction prices widens in periods of weaker demand and in locations with heavy oversupply.
Why the median and not the average?
The average is distorted by a few very expensive listings, for example premium apartments in the historic centre of Prague. The median points to the middle listing, the one with half the market above it and half below, and better reflects what a typical buyer will face.
How often do you update these numbers?
The data refreshes as new listings arrive. The current value for each city is shown on the price per m² page for Czechia.
Which Czech city is the most and least expensive?
In this table the most expensive is Prague, with a median close to 170 thousand koruna per metre, and the cheapest is Chomutov, a little above 40 thousand. The full ranking of regional capitals with current prices is on the Czechia page.
How much have Czech apartment prices risen over the last decade?
A lot. The Czech National Bank puts residential property prices in late 2024 at roughly 120 per cent above their 2015 level in nominal terms, and around 44 per cent higher in real terms. Prague and the fast-growing regional centres led the climb, while the industrial north-west lagged behind.
Current asking prices for specific cities and districts are shown on the price per m² page for Czechia. For the legal details of buying, including the rules for non-EU buyers and the taxes involved, see Buying Property in Czechia as a Foreigner (2026 Guide).
