Before you use this number
It is what owners believe their home is worth, not a sale price. It usually sits below the prices of homes selling today.
It averages five years of survey, not this month’s prices. Use it to compare places, not to appraise a home.
In small counties the margin of error is large; we mark those numbers as approximate or leave them out.
