Revisions

In comparison with the results released on 1st April 2019, the change in prices in Q4 2018 in metropolitan France did not however require revision. The overall change in prices in Q4 2018 stood at +0.7% compared to Q3 2018.

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.
