Computed from the latest available catalogue snapshot for Guernsey. These are advertised asking prices, not achieved sale prices or valuations. Medians use the midpoint of the two middle values for an even sample. Sale price comparisons exclude records explicitly classified as land, garages, parking or commercial property, and prices outside the report's £50,000–£50 million bounds. Bedroom comparisons also require a bedroom count. Agent price medians need at least ten eligible sale listings; a dash means insufficient evidence, not zero. Price movements are shown only when the observed history is consistent with the current asking price. Catalogue coverage is not the whole island market.
