Rents are what agencies are asking. “Typical” means inside the middle half of rents for similar flats to let in Centro: same bedrooms where we have at least three, otherwise similar size. With fewer than three similar flats we show no read. We do not calculate a fair rent, so there is no gap column in this mode. Furnished comes from the listing’s own wording; “—” means it does not say.
The verified agent can tell you what the numbers leave out: works planned on a building, how a street feels at night, what a seller here is likely to accept.
An independent buyer’s agent Frankly has verified. 30 minutes, free. Paid by you, not by the seller.
