Apartments only. An area appears when it recorded at least 20 resales and 20 new leases for that bedroom type in the period. Redwood bands: 15 years of rent or fewer, buying favoured; over 15 to 20, balanced; over 20, renting favoured. The reading compares price with rent only; your deposit, mortgage rate and service charges also count.
