What the numbers mean
| Median price | Half of the year's sales closed above this price, half below — steadier than an average, which one big sale can swing. |
| Sale-to-list | The sale price as a share of the final asking price. 100% is full ask; above 100% means homes are selling over asking. |
| Avg days on market | The average number of days a home was listed before it sold this year. Fewer days means a faster market. |
| Months of supply | How long today's listings would take to sell at the recent pace of sales. Under 5 months favours sellers; 7 or more favours buyers. |
