Free land asking-price comparison tool
Price per cent calculator
Calculate land price per cent from one total price and the matching legal extent. Use the result to compare like with like, not as a valuation or completed sale rate.
Compare like with like
A unit rate is only the starting point
Price per cent makes different land extents easier to compare. The comparison is meaningful only when the total prices use the same basis and the property facts are checked.

Common questions
Price per cent calculator FAQs
Answers about land units, comparison basis and what the calculated rate can and cannot show.
What does price per cent mean?
Price per cent is the total asking price divided by the land extent in cents. It creates a common unit rate for comparing land offers.
Can I enter an area in acre, ground or square feet?
Yes. Select the unit that matches your figure. The calculator converts the entered area to cents before dividing the total price.
Is the calculated rate a property valuation?
No. It is arithmetic based only on the total price and area you enter. Access, frontage, approval, classification, site condition and other property facts can materially affect value.
Should registration and brokerage be included in the total price?
For asking-price comparisons, use the same price basis for every property. Usually that means comparing the quoted property price and planning registration, brokerage and professional costs separately.
