Corrections to PBP Real Estate market data

Buyer-perception-of-price article and its historical study

The September 7 article described its whole-study sample as covering only five named counties, but the calculation did not enforce that restriction. The original aggregate's total exceeds its named county subtotals by 3,072 observations whose counties were missing, unrecognized or outside those groups; the exact breakdown is unresolved. The article also described price endpoints as complete reduction histories, recorded market days as verified time to contract, and group differences as evidence of buyer behavior or negotiating leverage.

The article now carries a dated correction at the same URL. All original chart values and table figures are preserved in a collapsed historical section, locally marked not cleared for citation, with corrected field definitions and source notices. Unsupported claims are removed from its title, description and FAQ markup; seller education and the human-pricing offer remain. The exact original listing-level input has not been found in the sources checked. No newer input was substituted, and no replacement five-county medians are claimed. This does not establish that every original ratio is wrong. Related social versions remain held from new distribution. Automatic regeneration of the old study is blocked pending a separately verified source, reviewed implementation and Grant's approval.

Obsolete direct press-file downloads

Unindexed September 5 files for Cape Coral, Key Largo, Kissimmee and LaBelle remained directly downloadable outside this program's five-county coverage. Obsolete Royal Palm Beach HOA files also remained at former current-series download addresses after current eligibility changed.

Original bytes are preserved internally. Exact out-of-area download URLs now lead to a withdrawal explanation rather than another city's figures. Obsolete Royal Palm Beach HOA downloads lead to its separately dated September monthly page and corrected HOA edition; they are not September 8 current figures. Stable current-series redirects are removed if publication eligibility recovers. The separately documented original monthly-file correction mappings remain unchanged.

September 2026 monthly press editions: corrected reissue r1

The original September 7 editions contained the wording and methodology issues described above. The original earlier source rows have not been found, so we cannot claim an exact reconstruction of the as-published figures.

A separately labeled reissue r1 retains the September 7 statistical date and original freeze time. It recomputes figures from the preserved later same-day BeachesMLS pull at 2026-09-07T12:06:07+00:00, not the missing earlier pull. Revised files identify the September 8 correction date and this limitation. All original city and metric entries are retained, original evidence is preserved, and each monthly page provides the before-and-after figure and wording ledger. Superseded public file links lead to the explicitly revised files.

Open monthly editions and their change ledgers

Condominium and HOA fee sample descriptions

Some fee headlines and comparisons read as if they described all active listings rather than the usable-fee sample retained after exclusions and percentile trimming. Eligibility before trimming, retained sample sizes, independently trimmed regional comparisons and construction-year subgroups were not always distinguished.

Fee figures identify the retained usable-fee sample and the denominator for each secondary measure. City publication requires at least 30 usable fees before trimming; the retained count may be smaller. City, county and regional samples are trimmed separately. Construction-year groups use the recorded YearBuilt field and do not establish why fees differ or the financial condition of an association.

County benchmarks and published-city peer comparisons

Some county benchmarks assigned every listing under an MLS city name to one county even when the records spanned counties. Some peer lists also included the retired Lake Worth city label alongside the published Lake Worth Beach series.

County benchmarks now group each listing by its recorded county. City pages distinguish their presentation county from that separately calculated benchmark and disclose cross-county record counts. Peer comparisons use the edition's published-city configuration and exclude the retired Lake Worth label; the underlying records are not deleted from geographic aggregates.

Seller Blink Rate, recorded days on market and asking-price bands

Some wording described listings not below their original asking price as having never reduced, treated recorded cumulative days as a complete relisting history, or called current asking-price bands original-price bands. Those descriptions went beyond the recorded fields. Some small subgroups and tied results also needed clearer presentation.

The measure is current asking price below recorded original asking price, with unchanged, raised and missing-price counts distinguished. Days describe the recorded MLS fields and their available-record denominators, not a reconstructed property history. Bands use current asking price; ties use displayed precision, and small subgroups show counts or explicit sample warnings rather than unsupported comparisons.

Current price-reduction, condominium-fee and HOA-fee downloads

September 8 pages could link to permanent downloads that still delivered cached September 7 content. A current date on the page did not establish the date of the downloaded file.

Current pages now link to edition-specific files, while permanent latest links remain available. Press downloads use a no-store browser policy and bypass the edge cache. Every file identifies its statistical date and exact source-pull time. Previously downloaded copies cannot be recalled; download the edition linked from the current page before citing a current figure.

Hobe Sound combined condominium, townhouse and villa asking-price median

The September 7 median was $2,495,000 across 31 active listings. Listings classified as Villa were omitted from this combined category.

The category now includes villas with townhouses. Including the 15 villas in the September 7 and September 8 BeachesMLS snapshots gives 46 active listings and a median asking price of $461,500 on both dates. The same listings had the same asking prices in both snapshots. This is a classification correction, not a one-day market-price decline.

Homepage and /homes-for-sale/ coverage counts

The advertised coverage read 63 cities while 101 city data pages were published. The count was typed by hand and had not been updated as pages were added.

Coverage counts are now derived from the published pages at build time and the build fails if an advertised number exceeds the pages actually linked.

Press kits, price cuts and days on market, 83 cities

The city press-kit files under /press/ returned 404 for about 90 minutes (2:25 PM to 3:55 PM ET) after a manual deploy shipped a build that did not include the morning's kits.

Kits restored from the morning build the same afternoon. The deploy procedure now checks that every indexed kit is present in the build before it goes live.
