How to read this chart
For Fayetteville, North Carolina, each point comes from the Zillow Home Value Index. It gives the smoothed and seasonally adjusted value, in that month's dollars, of a typical home in the market's middle third. The hollow dot shows the month picked on the slider, and the terracotta dot shows the latest month. No inflation adjustment applies to these figures, and the index follows the typical home rather than one particular house: to find what a single home is worth, use its own sale price with the sale-price card or the home appreciation calculator.
