Our house price statistics include all residential sales in Scotland between £20,000 and £1,000,000, and are based on date of registration.
They are produced in line with the Code of Practice for Statistics.
These statistics come from the land register. They date back to April 2003, when the last of Scotland's counties joined the land register.
Our house price statistics are distinct from the UK House Price Index. Read our Knowledge Base guidance notes and comparison page for more information.
In Summer 2019, we ran a user feedback survey on the data and statistics we publish.
In particular, you should note the change to the calendar year residential market review below.
Our statistics show the average price, volume of sales and market value for residential property in Scotland. The statistics are available from April 2003 to the most recent month.
