Volume matters as much as price here. A market with more tracked closings gives you a deeper comparable set, so you can filter hard on property type, size and condition and still have sales left to price against.

How to price a specific Washington DC property
Work from the closings, not from the state number. Start with sales of the same property type inside a tight radius, match size and condition before you widen anything, and treat the figures above as a sanity check on the answer rather than as the answer. A districtwide median is useful for spotting which markets deserve attention; it will mis-price an individual address in either direction.
Run any Washington DC address through Resideline and you will get the local comparable set and the property's value together, in one report.
