Housing Median Sales Prices

Median sales prices for various type of residential properties based on arms length, market rate sales. The data used to develop median prices comes from records filed at the South Middlesex Registry of Deeds. City staff analyze the records to identify arms-length sales. Arms-length sales are real-estate transactions in which two or more unrelated and unaffiliated parties agree to do business, acting independently and in their self-interest. Statistics drawn from only arms-length transactions are thought to best represent the true value of a property and state of the market.

基于市场行情的销售价格，本数据集提供了各类住宅物业的中位数销售价格。构建中位数价格所使用的数据源自南米德尔塞克斯产权登记处的记录。城市工作人员对这些记录进行分析，以识别非关联销售。所谓非关联销售，指的是两个或更多无直接关系且未建立关联的当事人之间达成商业协议的交易，各方独立行动，以自身利益为出发点。仅从非关联交易中提取的统计数据被认为最能真实反映物业价值及市场状况。
