Medians of registered residential sales, ready homes and off-plan registrations kept apart; a higher figure is a higher registered price, not a recommendation. A median prints only on 60 or more sales in its window, and a median is not an index: it moves when the mix of what sold moves. Yield divides registered rent by ready-home prices over the same twelve months. How these figures are computed.

Ready homes by quarter, Q3 2024 to Q2 2026

Median registered price per sqft of ready homes in each calendar quarter, by transaction date; complete quarters only. A quarter prints on 60 or more sales.

A quarter's move against the one before it is mostly a change in which homes sold, and on this register it reverses the next quarter about half the time; read the levels and the change across the whole span. Registrations for the newest quarter are still being filed, so its figure will settle.
