How these numbers are produced

Every figure is computed from listings we track directly, not licensed from a data vendor. Sample sizes are shown next to each metric because coverage varies by state and by field. Vacancy rates and suburb-level capital growth are deliberately excluded: our upstream sources do not cover them densely enough to publish an honest national figure.
