Critics on the table

• Table borders are not needed since they contain no additional information.
• Label of the table is missing, so the whole statistics is hard to understand.
• Table rows contain different information and units, e.g. "Sold", "On the market" and "Change".
• Units (% and $) within the table cells are bad formatted. Could be extracted and written to table headers.
• Some units are explizitly displayed (% and $), others not even defined (last column).
• Dimensions of table columns are not properly assigned. Last column is far to wide, others are to short (or bad formatted).
• Header information of first column is used in table cells again.
• Numbers are aligned left, so they are hardly comparable and readable.
• The serparator of numbers (in table column "units") is missing. Not consistent through whole statistics.
• Precision of numbers is not constistent as well.
• Confusing naming of table cells, e.g. "Change 2007-2008" references change from March 2007 to March 2008.
• Missing percentages for Change from March 2007 to March 2008.
