What can your Colombo apartment actually rent for today?

Most owners are guessing — or working off what a neighbour mentioned two years ago. The Colombo Apartment Report shows you what prime apartments are really renting for right now — real bands from completed lettings, not portal guesswork.

Real rental bands from completed lettings — what furnished units are actually leasing for.
How fast prime-core apartments are letting right now.
Who's renting this market — and why furnishing has become the lever that sets your rent.

Compiled by Axe Realty from live transactions across prime Colombo. A boutique property firm — PV00252977.

Inside this quarter's report

Four sections, built from what actually transacted across prime Colombo this quarter — not portal listings or asking prices.

Prime rental index

What furnished units are leasing for across the prime core, by unit size — real bands from completed lettings, not asking prices.

Leasing velocity

How fast prime-core apartments are actually letting right now, and what separates the ones that move.

Who's renting

The international tenant demand driving this market — corporate, diplomatic, regional — and what they expect from a unit.

Furnishing economics

Whether furnishing pays for itself, and how it lifts your rent and cuts vacancy across a lease.

The report shows you the market. An assessment shows you your apartment.

Rent a little under the market and you lose the gap every month. Ask a little over and it sits empty — and an empty quarter usually costs more than the rent you were holding out for.

The report gives you the market-wide range. A free assessment tells you what your specific apartment should command right now — which buildings are pricing above the market, and where yours sits. No cost, no obligation.
