House Prices - Residential Properties Sales and Price

The statistics include all market value sales in Scotland, based on the date of registration with Registers of Scotland. Areas with less than 5 sales have had the value of sales suppressed to help minimise the risk of data disclosure and to ensure that any averages presented are based on at least 5 records. For the most up to date Scotland and Local Authority figures please see Registers of Scotland house price statistics. For a comparison, to understand the difference between these two datasets please see our guide to using RoS house price statistics. how-we-compile-our-statistics.
