Northeast Florida just set a record — but the story isn't what the headline says.

“Sold twice” just means we found the same exact house that sold once a while back and then sold again recently, and compared those two prices. Since it’s the identical home both times, that gap tells you how much that house really went up. It’s more honest than the median everyone quotes — the median just averages whatever happened to sell that month, so a wave of high-end sales makes it jump even if no single home actually gained. Sold-twice cuts through that and shows the real move.

Correction, October 7, 2026. This edition originally reported same-home appreciation of +2.9%/yr using every repeat sale 1–15 years apart, which carried the 2020–22 run-up into a figure we then compared with a 12-month median change. Recomputed on short holds only (bought 1–3 years before the June resale; 1,850 pairs, single-family), it is +1.7%/yr. Owners who bought 5+ years ago averaged +6.7%/yr (5,253 pairs). The June PDF still carries the original figure. Later editions use the corrected method.
