Two things are being measured. The score out of 100 says how the asking price holds up against comparable sales. The standing on each card says how rare that score is in that city, counted against every scored listing there rather than the handful shown. Only listings with at least three comparable sales appear at all, because a score with nothing to compare against is not a score. All of it is a starting point for your own diligence, not financial advice.
4 of them reach 75 or higher, which reads as strong value, about 40% of what is scored here.
The median asking price across them is $849,450.
The average score is 73.2. Figures reflect current asking prices on active listings and refresh on the hour.

What paying for a home in Nelson looks like
Nelson households earn a median of $72,500 a year, and owners here carry a median shelter cost of $1,160 a month, about 19% of that income before tax.
23% of Nelson households already spend more than 30% of their income on shelter, which is the line Statistics Canada uses to call housing unaffordable.
Owners hold 63% of Nelson homes and renters the other 37%.
The census valued the average Nelson dwelling at $587,500 in 2021. The median asking price among the listings scored here is $849,450, 45% above that figure. Census values are self-reported and four years old, so read the gap as context rather than a measure of the market today.
