Method
The index is a standardized median asking price per square meter. Advertised properties are grouped into cells of property type, region and layout; each cell contributes its monthly median, and the cells are chained together as a Laspeyres index with a fixed basket, so a month with more studios or fewer houses on the market does not move the figure. A month-over-month step is published only when a deterministic split-half check over twelve splits keeps its standard error at or below one percentage point; a step the sample cannot carry is shown as a gap rather than a guess. Figures are asking prices, not transaction prices, and the sample is what the market advertised in the month, not the housing stock. The full method is on the index methodology guide; the national report is the Hungary index.
