How these numbers work

  • Sales are counted in the month each home sold (the firm deal), not the month it closed. The figures run to the end of September 2026 and are updated every night.
  • “All homes” covers houses, townhouses, condos and multi-unit homes. Vacant land and farms are left out, as their prices would pull the figures around.
  • New listings count every home listed for sale that month, including homes put back on the market.
  • The most recent month can rise a little as late sales are reported.
  • No price, days on market or sold-against-asking figure is given for a month or area with fewer than 5 sales.

Statistics worked out by Sold Nearby from sales reported on the PropTx MLS® System. Information is deemed reliable but is not guaranteed accurate by PropTx. Totals, medians and shares only: no individual sale is shown, and no price is given for a month or area with fewer than 5 sales.
