How this area has changed

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.
How homes change hands in CM24 8, over the last five years (622 sales):
- What sells: 31% terraced, 30% detached, 23% semi-detached, 11% flats, 5% other.
