How to read this chart
The Zillow Home Value Index for Tallahassee provides the value shown by each point. It covers a typical home in the market's middle third, uses smoothing and seasonal adjustments, and states the value in that month's dollars. The hollow dot picks out the month on the slider; the terracotta dot picks out the latest month. These figures are not adjusted for inflation. An index follows the typical home, not any one house. Use the card above or the home appreciation calculator to work out what a single home is worth based on its own sale price.
