Transparency is not a valuation
Price paid data tells you about completed transactions at a high level in an area over time. It helps calibrate expectations. It does not tell you the internal condition of a home today.
Use it responsibly
Combine with viewing, surveys where needed, and professional advice for your decisions.
Avoid fake precision
Do not treat a single comparable as destiny. Think in ranges and adjust for what you can observe.
