How to read this chart
Each point plots the Zillow Home Value Index for Kalispell. It values a typical home in the market's middle third, smoothed and seasonally adjusted, in that month's dollars. The hollow dot shows the month picked on the slider, while the terracotta dot shows the most recent month. Inflation is not taken out of these numbers, and an index follows the typical home rather than a given house. Use the card just above it, or the home appreciation calculator, to work out what a single home is worth from its own sale price.
