Key Findings

  1. $313,000 is the primary indicator of market value and recent transaction activity — the median sold price signals where buyers are closing transactions and aligns with a broader up price year-over-year trend.
  2. $314,250 median listing price is only marginally above the median sold price of $313,000, which may indicate limited seller premium and some pricing friction between asking and achieved values.
  3. 347 median days on market points to slower sales velocity and suggests relatively constrained active supply in the analyzed sample, which may prolong time-to-contract for typical SFR and condominium listings.
  4. Mortgage cost pressure and rental context are mixed: current 30-year fixed mortgage rates are averaging 6.63%, reflecting elevated interest rate pressure, while median market rent is $1,300 with a flat year-over-year rent trend — this combination may keep buyer affordability constrained while holding rent-supported demand steady.
