Sources & methodology
Every figure on this page is drawn from authoritative public housing and mortgage data, refreshed monthly — so you can quote it in a listing appointment or CMA and back it with a link when a client pushes back. Home values shown as ZHVI are a smoothed typical-value index, not raw sale prices.
