| Item | Definition |
|---|---|
| Source | Closed sales, active listings, and listings under contract reported to MLSListings Inc. Statistics are calculated by Aegis Luxury Real Estate from that data. |
| Geographic coverage | A sale is counted in Santa Clara County when the MLSListings Inc. city field for the property is one of the 15 incorporated cities of the county. Unincorporated areas are not included. |
| Property types | Single family homes, townhomes, and condos, as classified by MLSListings Inc. Figures marked all property types combine the three. |
| Median | The middle value when every closed sale in the period is ranked, calculated from individual sales. |
| Average | The total of all values in the period divided by the number of closed sales. |
| Days on market | The MLS days on market field reported for each closed sale. Sales without that field are left out of the days on market figures. |
| Reporting week | Weeks run Monday through Sunday. The page updates every Monday and covers the week that ended the day before. |
| Trailing 13 weeks | The 13 completed weeks ending with the latest reporting week. Medians, averages, ratios and counts for a period of weeks are calculated from the individual sales that closed inside those 13 weeks. This is the main window for the headline figures because a single week in one city holds too few sales for a stable median. |
| Active listings | Listings on the market every Sunday: listed on or before that day and not yet closed, canceled, expired, withdrawn, or pending. Contingent listings, which have an accepted offer but remain on the market, are included. Months of supply is calculated from this count. |
| Pending sales | Listings under contract every Sunday: contract date on or before that day and not yet closed, whether pending or contingent. Contingent listings appear in both the active and the pending counts, so the two figures are not added together. Pending counts begin in September 2025. |
| Months of supply | Active listings on the latest Sunday divided by the average monthly closed sales over the prior 13 weeks. |
| Sale to list ratio | Average closing price divided by average final list price across closed sales in the period. |
| vs Last Year | The same weeks one year earlier: the 13 weeks ending on the matching Sunday of the prior year. |
| Year to date | January 1 through the latest reporting week, compared with the same weeks of the prior year. |
| Last 52 weeks | The 52 completed weeks ending with the latest reporting week, compared with the 52 weeks before them. |
| City table | The by city table reports each city's OWN figures over the 13 weeks ending with the latest reporting week, all property types, and the 15 city counts sum to the county counts. County medians are calculated from every qualifying sale across the 15 incorporated cities, never from city medians, and county averages and ratios are weighted by closed sales. |
| Historical coverage | Annual history runs from January 2017. Weekly active listing counts begin in January 2021, so inventory history starts there. |
| Update cadence | Statistics update every Monday and always cover the previous completed week. Listing data referenced in the MLS disclosure refreshes separately. |
| Small samples | When a period has fewer than 10 closed sales, the page shows the sale count and notes that medians and averages can move sharply. A single week in a smaller city usually falls below 10, so the trailing 13 week, year to date and last 52 weeks figures are the steadier read. |

I built this entire data platform because I believe buyers and sellers deserve transparent, current market intelligence, not guesswork. Every figure on every city page comes from the same MLS feed I use to advise my clients. The difference between a good deal and a great deal is knowing what the data says before you sit down at the table.
