Addis Ababa property prices, in the open

Paste a listing. Know if the price is fair.

Kartalens compares any Addis Ababa listing with similar properties asking right now, shows how long it has been advertised and by whom, and tells you what to verify before you pay. Built for buyers and renters, in Addis or abroad.

Free during the beta. Compares asking prices from public listings; not a valuation.

How it works

No black boxes: every number comes with the listings behind it.

Step 1

Collect

We read public property listings, starting with the Telegram channels where most of Addis Ababa's listings are posted, and keep every original post.

Step 2

Clean

AI extracts price, size, bedrooms and location from Amharic and English posts. The same unit posted by several brokers is merged into one property.

Step 3

Compare

Each price is compared with similar listings nearby. You see a range, how many listings it is based on, and how precise the location is.

What we promise, and what we don't

Asking prices, not sale prices

Listings show what sellers ask. We report them as such and never present them as transaction prices.

Not a certified valuation

Under Proclamation No. 1357/2024 valuations must be done by certified valuers. Kartalens helps you ask better questions. It does not replace one.

Sample sizes on every number

If too few listings support a figure, we say so, or don't show it.

Honest locations

Most posts name a neighborhood, not an address. We show how precise each location is instead of guessing a pin.

Free during the beta. An account unlocks the listings explorer and the property law Q&A.
