Each figure is the change of the FHFA annual all-transactions index, from the year that you pick to 2023. It is a change for the area. It is not the change in the value of your home, and it does not use the price that you paid.
The average for each year is a compounded annual change. The guide to values explains more.
When using the FHFA House Price Calculator, please note that it does not project the actual value of any particular house.

It says about the margin of error: The MOEs for published ACS estimates are provided at a 90 percent confidence level.
A value of "$2,000,000 or more" is the top group, with no margin. See the glossary. The site copied these texts on .
