Headline metrics are calculated from Propetica listings matched to the Edinburgh market area using a rolling 90-day window. Asking prices and rents are advertised amounts shown in £, not completed transaction prices. Listings included in the window are records that pass the source feed's recency or last-seen filter; any label of active refers to that availability check, not a completed transaction. Detailed distributions marked as sample data are illustrative subscription previews.
