A negative premium does not mean that amenity subtract value: it is often indicated that this amenity is more common in buildings of another time or range within the same group (for example, the fireplace in older buildings).
How to use it to decide: amenities also increase HOA fee. If you are not going to use a swimming pool or gym, a building without them in the same neighborhood can go cheaper in price and monthly rate.

Methodology
- Source: live housing ads collected by the intake of Aptology in Metrocuadrado, Fincaraíz, Cienaltes, Wasi, Habi, Houm and Domus, from 11 to 18 October of 2026. Court: 18 October of 2026.
- Debugging: the same property published several times is counted only once (grouping by portal and, between portals, by price, area, rooms and coordinates). Prices and areas out of range are excluded and, for rent, HOA fee is subtracted when the portal includes it in the rental.
- What is measured: prices ordered (published), not closing prices.
- Threats: the list of characteristics of each listing (standard text). Matched premium: weighted median price differences per m² between apartments with and without amenity, within groups of the same estrato, locality, rooms and area range (6 ads or more on each side). Only amenities with 10 groups or more and 80 ads or more.
- Limitations: are prices ordered in portals, which may differ from the final value of rental or sale. The coverage is higher in the north of Bogotá and in estratos 4 to 6, because the published offer is concentrated there. The neighborhoods and the town come from what each portal writes; when the town is missing it is assigned by the nearest neighbouring ads.
