The CSO's own index for the same regions moved +6.1% over the same period. New builds were 16% of sales.

County figures are medians, so they move with the mix of what sold as well as with price. The index above controls for that; a county median does not. Sales counts for recent quarters are a floor, because the register keeps accepting filings for weeks after a sale closes.
