Key Findings

  2. There is a notable gap between $734,950 median listing price and $608,000 median sold price, which may indicate pricing friction as sellers are positioning above what buyers are transacting for and could suggest increased negotiation room for purchasers; flat price trend.
  3. Liquidity appears tempered: the market shows a median days on market of 123, consistent with slower sales velocity and a measured pace of transactions that may lengthen listing timelines; slower sales velocity.
