Rental Market

Property Taxes

Liquidity & Velocity

Market Trends & Context

Key Findings

1. The primary market indicator is the median sold price of $5,381,000, which signals a high-value neighborhood and establishes recent transaction-level market value; market remains hot based on price momentum and transaction context.
2. Despite the elevated median price, the median days on market of 349 points to slower sales velocity and suggests pricing friction or a longer decision cycle for buyers in this price tier; sellers should expect extended marketing periods and prepare for conditional negotiations.
3. Unit-level pricing context shows a median price per square foot of $1,256, which supports premium valuation expectations for SFR and condo stock in the ZIP; under current conditions this metric may guide competitive pricing for new listings to attract qualified buyers.
4. Income and financing context: the median market rent of $3,850 combined with moderate interest rate pressure implies rising rents and manageable borrowing constraints; investors should weigh rent growth against financing cost sensitivity while assessing hold vs. sell decisions.
