The plain-English read

Homes in Leesburg that closed from April through June sold for about 6% more than the year’s average, and December through February about 9% less. September has run soft here, about 2% below the average, and typical values have held steady for three months, so waiting for spring is a choice about the season, not about the trend. If you can be ready by March, the history is on your side. If you cannot, the difference is real but it is not the difference between selling and not.

History, not a promise.
