Number of house sales and value by quartile
Residential property transactions are recorded by Registers of Scotland. For more information, see https://www.ros.gov.uk/_data/assets/pdffile/0020/3935/StatisticsGuidanceNotes.pdf.
Historical figures include additional coding by the Land Valuation Information Unit at the University of Paisley and Scottish Government. The number of sales, median price and lower quartile price are based on second hand and new build sales that are recorded/registered whether they are cash purchases or funded by mortgages. The mean price is based on new build and second hand sales between £20,000 and £1,000,000.
