Methodological Notes
1. This news release presents data on property transactions based on final deeds of sale (‘kuntratti’) and promise of sale agreements (‘konvenji’) registered with the Malta Tax and Customs Administration (MTCA). The qualifier ‘period of registration’ common to the tables refers to such registration. Basing the data on the period when the final deed of sale or promise of sale agreement is registered with the MTCA, rather than when it is signed, is considered to produce more timely information.
2. The scope of this release follows the classification of the administrative data source, and includes only those transactions classified as ‘residential’ by the source. The data presented covers the following property types: airspace, boathouse, bungalow, farmhouse, flat/apartment, garage, garden, house, maisonette, penthouse, plot of land, semi-detached villa, terraced house, ‘terran’, urban tenement, and villa.
3. Excluded are transactions classified as ‘commercial’, comprising business premises and warehouse/storeroom, and those classified as ‘other’, a category that incorporates car space, field, grave and redemption of ground rent, amongst others.
4. Therefore, deeds/agreements relating to land for residential purposes (‘plot of land’) are included, while those pertaining to land for non-residential purposes (‘field’) are not.
5. Only deeds/agreements relating to the sale of property, which also includes sale by auction (‘subasta’) and sale after assignment of rights, are considered. Therefore, donations and exchanges, amongst others, are not included.
6. In this news release, a promise of sale agreement is accounted for only once, and included at the time of registration with the MTCA. Therefore, if a promise of sale is extended to a later date, that record is excluded from the statistics presented in this news release.
7. In the light of notes 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, this release must be viewed as a subset of all the property transactions and activities registered with the MTCA that take place during a given period.
8. In some cases, more than one property is listed under the same final deed of sale or promise of sale agreement. Table 1 to Table 7 (excluding Table 4) of this news release report the number of registered final deeds of sale and promise of sale agreements, and not the number of properties falling under these deeds/agreements. The number of properties falling under the registered final deeds of sale is presented in Table 4. This table cannot be replicated for the promise of sale agreements due to non-availability of data.
9. The residential property transactions considered are not limited to individuals (households), but may also involve other economic agents. Besides individuals, the administrative data source distinguishes between companies, authorities and bodies of persons.
10. The districts incorporating localities in Tables 3 and 7 correspond to the location of the property which has been or shall be purchased, not to the place of residence of the buyer or seller.
11. To achieve consistency, the methodological concepts used in this news release are aligned to the extent possible with the House Price Index concepts.
12. Users are reminded of several factors which might inhibit comparability between data on final deeds of sale and promise of sale agreements. These differences include: a) the time lag between promise of sale agreements and final deeds of sale; b) certain property being sold without a promise of sale agreement; c) some promise of sale agreements falling through before the final contract is signed and d) the registered transactions value may be updated.
13. Data is provisional and subject to revisions, which may arise following updates in the source data.
