# Resources

Notes on the kinds of releases the editions drew on, and on why two figures about the same month can disagree.

## Monthly rent measures

Rent series are published monthly and revised, so a figure quoted in one edition can differ from the same month quoted later. Editions here carry the number as it read on the day.

## Sales and mortgage releases

Existing-home sales, new-home sales and mortgage application volumes arrive on separate monthly and weekly schedules; a single week can therefore produce readings that appear to disagree.

## Foreclosure filings

Filing counts combine notices, auction scheduling and completed repossessions. A jump in the headline can come from any one of the three, which is why the composition matters more than the percentage.

## Construction indicators

Housing starts, permits and completions describe three different moments in the same pipeline and routinely move in different directions in the same month.

## Commercial property data

Commercial figures are assembled from transaction records and loan servicing files rather than a single release, so they arrive later and are revised more heavily than residential ones.
