Reading the figures
These are official averages for the whole of Stratford-on-Avon district, not just the town. They’re published about two months after the month they cover, and they adjust for the mix of homes sold, so a month with more big houses doesn’t push the average up on its own. Earlier months get revised as late sales are registered: July’s average now stands at £394,858, up 1.1% on a year earlier.
