Postcode sector SW2 5 £500,000 £540,000 -7% since £495,000 +1% since £285,000 +75% since £225,000 +122% since

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.
