The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.

- What sells: 39% flats, 22% semi-detached, 19% terraced, 19% detached, 2% other.
