Note

Neither median nor mean prices are appropriate for measuring the evolution of property prices as the mix of dwellings sold in different periods can change over time. The Residential Property Price Index is the definitive measure of property price trends.

Note

The price indices for new and existing dwellings are produced on a quarterly basis and at the national level only. This is due to the low transaction numbers for new dwellings, which would result in a highly volatile monthly index. Pooling the transactions over a quarter, rather than a month, allows for the calculation of more robust estimates of price change.
