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 CT5 2, over the last five years (699 sales):
- What sells: 36% semi-detached, 33% detached, 22% flats, 6% terraced, 2% other.
- 23% sold leasehold, and 1% were new builds.
- 116 sales in the last twelve months, against 243 in the same twelve months five years ago.
