Price bandsmix-shift

Price Bands — the median behind the median

A single median rises whenever expensive homes become a bigger share of what sells, even if no tier got more expensive. These are the tiers underneath it, computed from the most recent recorded sale per property in Hennepin.

Current tiers · 12 months to Apr 26floor 10 sales/tier

7 tiers had too few sales in this ZIP and are shown at county or metro level — see the stamp on each row.

No mix-shift history for this area. no geography from this ZIP up to metro has 8+ quarters of 10+ recorded arms-length sales across at least 4 price tiers. Trends are drawn only from recorded transactions; the last-sale snapshot above cannot carry a time series, because a property that sold twice keeps only its latest sale — which drags the history upward through the tiers and would invent the very mix shift this section exists to test for.

National context — not local

NAR's aggregate existing-home median for the United States and the Midwest census region. This is the figure the tiers above are a check on. It is national/regional and says nothing about 55356.
