The immediate constraint is an uncertain sample definition, so I am not ready to present this as a clean Madrid studio trend. The provisional November 2025 entries are 119 days on market, a 9.7% rise in asking prices and a financing-sensitive reference near €1,293,000.

Should these remain in the monthly series while the methodology is tightened, or does the price-band mix make them too unstable? Useful additions would be listing counts, exact time-on-market definitions, revision dates and splits by neighbourhood and price band. Completed transactions can be shown separately from asking data. Please identify any local observation as such and provide a source where one is available.
 
One clarification before people compare months: I do not yet have enough detail on the sample definition. In particular, we need to know whether €1,293,000 describes a central price point, a price-band boundary or a small cluster of expensive listings. We also need the revision date and confirmation that the 119 days and +9.7% use the same studio sample.
 
I would not keep a single Madrid-wide headline until that is resolved. A €1,293,000 figure could make the snapshot highly sensitive to the price-band mix, especially if only a few listings sit there. At minimum, split the sample by neighbourhood and price band, then report listing count alongside time on market.
 
Agreed on showing the count, but I would not discard the series yet. The 119 days may still be a useful directional measure if its definition stays consistent. Does “time on market” mean current listing age, time until removal, or time from first advertisement to a completed sale? Those produce very different interpretations.
 
There is another mismatch to resolve: the opening says the focus is studios, while the property type is described more broadly as property. If studios have been mixed with other property types anywhere in the calculation, the +9.7% movement should not be presented as studio-specific. A simple inclusion table would make later comparisons much safer.
 
Completed sales are useful, but I would not make them the sole test of whether the series has value. That is tempting because achieved prices feel more conclusive, yet listing ages and advertised-price changes measure different parts of the market and can still reveal seller behaviour.

A workable compromise is to keep separate columns for asking data and completed transactions, with the sample, period and definitions shown for each. The 9.7% figure could then remain provisional without suggesting that advertised-price growth was also achieved in completed deals.
 
That distinction makes sense. I would also separate active inventory from newly added and removed listings. Otherwise, a fall in available studios could reflect sales, withdrawals or reclassification, and we would not know which. Even without assigning a cause, those separate counts would help explain whether 119 days reflects older stock accumulating.
 
Suggested next update: preserve the three November 2025 figures as provisional, add the sample size and exact definitions, split by neighbourhood and price band where the sample permits, and record the revision date. Then attach completed-sale evidence as a separate comparison rather than blending it into asking data. Until those fields are filled, €1,293,000 should be labelled as an unexplained reference range rather than a Madrid studio benchmark.
