Revisions
The second-hand housing price index is revised in order to include observations recorded after the previous publication.
In comparison with the results released on 1st July 2019, the change in prices in Q1 2019 in metropolitan France was revised downwards. The overall change in prices in Q1 2019 stood at +0.6% compared to Q4 2018, instead of +0.8%.
For further information
The calculation of indexes is based on the transactions completed during the quarter. The methodology is based on models explaining the price of housing according to its characteristics. The current value of a reference housing stock is estimated thanks to these models. Methodological principles of calculation of indexes may be found in « Les indices Notaires-Insee de prix des logements anciens », Insee Méthodes n° 128 released in July 2014.
At the time for publication of this Informations Rapides, around 30 indexes for big cities are not yet available. Between two publications, at the middle-quarter, the Insee Macro-economic database (BDM) and the historical data available on the web page of the index are updated so as to incorporate this information and update the data previously released.
