Description: Last Sale Price - in US Dollars (from Assessor's data)

Related fields: saledate, parval
Units: US Dollars · Valid range: 0+, typically less than 1,000,000,000
Coverage: See saleprice_pct in the live Coverage Report CSV.

last_ownership_transfer_date — Last Ownership Transfer Date

Description: Last Sale date for the most recent ownership transfer. Can convey that there has been a non-arms-length transfer after the most recent sale.

Use it for: Date of the most recent ownership transfer of any kind, including non-arms-length and administrative transfers (e.g. inheritance, quitclaim, intra-family deeds). When later than saledate, it signals a transfer occurred after the last recorded market sale.
