Key Findings

  1. The median sold price of $439,500 remains the primary indicator of recent market value and suggests transactions are settling below asking levels, which appears to favor buyers negotiating on price and terms.
  2. The gap between the median listing price of $599,950 and the median sold price of $439,500 indicates meaningful pricing friction between seller expectations and closed transactions and may require sellers to adjust list strategy to achieve faster closings.
  3. The long median days on market of 135 points to slower sales velocity—this should be treated as reduced liquidity rather than a structural collapse; sellers should expect longer marketing periods and buyers can use timing to request concessions.
  4. Interest rate conditions are a headwind: interest rate pressure is listed as elevated and local mortgage guidance shows ~6.8% current 30-year rates (≈0.8% above the 2026 low of 5.98%); elevated interest rate pressure may suppress buyer affordability and lengthen negotiation timelines.
