Where these numbers come from

Every figure on this page is recalculated from the live MLS feed at the moment the page loads - it is not a monthly snapshot. Sales figures cover residential sales only, over the last twelve complete calendar months; rentals, land and commercial are excluded, as are fractional co-ownership shares, which are priced per share and would distort every median. Market data is deemed reliable but not guaranteed - talk to us before making a decision on it.
