A dash is not a zero. A median needs 30 priced listings behind it and a yield needs 30 on each side; 27 of these fall under that on at least one measure, so those figures are withheld rather than printed off a handful of homes.

Living here

What Tokarara is actually like

Tokarara has experienced significant development, especially since the completion of the Koura Freeway in 2018, which has connected the suburb to Downtown Port Moresby in just a 5-minute drive. Predominantly a residential area, Tokarara has seen new investments, including the opening of the new Tango Supermarket.

The suburb features a mix of colonial-era homes and newer timber or brick residences, reflecting recent road extensions and development in the area.

Despite a substantial increase in property values over the past decade, Tokarara remains attractive to first-time homebuyers and investors. The high demand for rental properties in the suburb is driven by its convenient location near Waigani and Downtown Port Moresby.

Every word above is already written, and already on the site.

Straight answers

What these figures are, and what we will not print

Where these figures come from, and where they stop.

Asking, not sold

Every price here is what a seller or landlord advertises on this site today. Cambodia publishes no register of transaction prices, so nobody can honestly print what homes actually sold for.

Why there is no price chart

Our historical figures are not measured consistently enough to compare one year with another, so we would rather show no trend line than a misleading one.

Small samples are withheld

A median needs 30 priced listings behind it, and a yield needs 30 on each side. Below that the figure is a dash. A dash is an admission; a number would be a claim.

Per square metre is computed

Price divided by floor area, every time, over the homes that state one. The per-square-metre figure agents type into the listing form is never used here.

These counts match the search

Every count is what the search results page returns for the same area, because it is the same query.
