Methodology

Each sale (DLD trans_group_en='Sales') is matched to coincident mortgages (trans_group_en='Mortgages') in the same building within ±2 months. The median matched loan amount divided by the sale price gives a per-sale LTV; we aggregate to median LTV per area-quarter and per building. Sanity-bounded to LTV ∈ [20%, 100%]. Approximate: foreign or private-bank financing doesn't register with DLD, so unfinanced-looking sales may include some non-DLD-mortgaged ones. Reasonable for trends, not for absolute totals.
