Understanding the numbers
Volume can mislead
A market with 5,000 small off-plan transactions may appear busier than one with 500 completed villa sales, yet the second could represent a higher total transaction value. Transaction count measures activity, while total value measures the amount transacted. The workspace presents both side by side, and rankings allow you to sort by either.
