How to read this chart
Each point shows the Zillow Home Value Index for Bend, which tracks a typical home in the market's middle third. Values are in that month's dollars, with smoothing and seasonal adjustment. The hollow dot identifies the slider's selected month, while the terracotta dot identifies the most recent month. These values are not inflation-adjusted. Because the index follows a typical home rather than an individual house, use the card above or the home appreciation calculator with a sale price to calculate that home's value.
