Key Findings

  1. The primary market-value signal is the $281,500 median sold price, which, relative to the $277,500 median listing price, suggests sellers are generally achieving slightly above asking; up year-over-year price trend supports this price resilience.
  2. The 391 median days on market indicates notably slower sales velocity and persistent pricing friction, which appears consistent with a neutral market temperature where transactions are balanced but take longer to close.
  3. Interest-rate pressure is elevated, creating a headwind for buyer affordability and likely contributing to longer market times; sellers should anticipate financing-related contingencies and price sensitivity in offers.
  4. Rents are softening—median market rent is $950 with a down rent year-over-year trend—so investor appetite for short-term cash flow may be cooling even as the for-sale market shows price stability and relatively constrained active supply in the sampled dataset.
