Percentages run against 100; the per m² ratio runs against 1.5 times the Marbella median of €8,186/m² (the widest any area reaches, rounded up, so no bar hits the ceiling). Still without a source, so still unscored: distance from the sea it is priced against; brochure language per square metre.

Method and limits

Counted from 26 distinct homes in Monte Mayor asking €3,000,000 or more, drawn from agency and portal listings plus aggregate market tracking and deduplicated by shared reference, price, built area and photograph. 4 are listed by more than one firm at once. 18 of the 26 records come from sources that date individual listings; the remainder lack a verified individual source date and may include catalogue timestamps or observation-only market tracking. Neither establishes when a particular listing was created, edited or still available. Every figure is an asking price, not a valuation. Aggregate tracking figures may have no public record URL, so not every number links to an individual listing. Sub-areas are counted here and on their own pages, so figures do not sum across pages.
