How this is measured
We compare the median price per sqft of sales in the last four quarters with the same four quarters 1 year earlier, ready and off-plan apart. A change is published only when both periods kept at least 30 sales. How we measure price change
What this does not tell you
- These are medians of what sold in each period, not the same homes resold. A rise can come from a different mix of homes selling.
- It describes the past. It does not say where prices will go.
These figures describe registered sales and rents. They are not advice on what to buy or rent.
