Why is the sale price in Castelo Branco (municipality) lower than the asking price in listings?
Because the asking price is a starting point for negotiation, and the stock of listings piles up the properties that do not sell, typically overpriced.

Do not confuse this gap with the negotiation margin on a specific property, which is much smaller.
Are prices per m² in Castelo Branco (municipality) rising or falling?
