How these numbers are made

  • Asking figures: Current listings we track across estate agents and portals (278 in Crawley), refreshed daily, as of 1 September 2026. We quote medians, never means, and suppress anything based on fewer than 5 listings.
  • Off market and time listed: Off-market counts include only listings confirmed off the market after a short grace period; "typical time listed" is time advertised, not time to sell. We have tracked Crawley since March 2026.
  • West Sussex comparisons: The same daily snapshot taken across the whole of West Sussex, so both sides of every comparison share one basis. Where a comparison spans all property types, some of the gap reflects what is for sale here.
