Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood's primary market indicator, the median sold price, is 714,500, and should be treated as the most reliable measure of current market value and recent transaction activity.
  2. The median listing price is 687,500, which sits below the median sold price of 714,500, suggesting a pricing dynamic where recent transactions cleared above typical asking points and may reflect pricing friction between seller expectations and closed sales.
  3. The median days on market is 279, signaling slower sales velocity; combined with a relatively constrained active supply in the analyzed sample and a neutral market temperature, this suggests transactions are taking longer and sellers may need more time or concessions to close deals.
  4. The median market rent is 1,697, while rent year-over-year trend is down and interest rate pressure is elevated, which together may cool rental demand and continue to constrain buyer affordability—monitor rent and rate trends for near-term leasing and pricing decisions.
