Interpretation boundary

What the profile measures—and what it does not

Prices and sales

Mix-adjusted local price indices. Registered-sale counts show provisional source records and must not be read as final market activity.

Private rents

A modelled stock measure covering new and existing tenancies. Scotland and Northern Ireland use rental geographies that do not map directly to local-authority boundaries, so those values remain blank here.

Gross yield proxy

Average annual rent divided by average sale price for the same month. The source populations cover different homes and no costs are deducted.

Short-stay observations

932 aggregate records allocated from 11 intersecting observation cells. The value is not complete inventory or a count of unique dwellings.
