In plain English
What the Bristol numbers mean
- The headline number blends very different homes: detached homes sold for a typical £480,000 against £274,750 for flats: about 1.7 times as much. Use the figure for your type of home, not the mix.
- Prices here are widely spread: most sales fell between £190,000 and £700,000, so the median says little about any one home.
- 43% of these sales were leasehold: a genuine mix of houses and flats, so check the tenure of the home you are looking at.
- This is a busy district: about 130 recorded sales a month.
