Reading it right
- A bedroom count isn’t a size. A large three-bedroom can sell for more than a small four-bedroom, so check the median size above and the square footage of any home you compare.
- Bedrooms are as listed. A listing can count a den or an unpermitted addition that the county record doesn’t, so check the permit history.
- Different houses sold in each group, and rebuilt or new houses push a group’s median up.
- Small samples swing. Every cell shows its sale count.
- Past prices aren’t a forecast or the value of any one home.
- Each sale counts once; none falls inside two of our guide outlines.
