How to interpret
Indices transform raw transaction data into a consistent performance benchmark. For investors, the primary use is context: knowing whether your property appreciated faster or slower than the broader market helps you distinguish good investment decisions from market luck. Consistent outperformance of the index suggests a sound strategy; consistent underperformance warrants a re-evaluation of your selection criteria.
Indices also serve as a reference point for return expectations. If the market index returns 8% over five years and your property returns 6%, the 2% shortfall represents the cost of your specific asset selection, location, or timing decisions.
