Key Findings

1. The neighborhood's primary market indicator, the median sold price, is $569,000, which anchors recent transaction-level value and contrasts with the median listing price of $625,000, suggesting there is pricing friction between seller expectations and realized sales (balanced context).
2. Sales velocity appears muted with a median days on market of 146, which may indicate slower transaction turnover and softening liquidity rather than rapid rehousing of inventory.
3. Price direction is showing a year-over-year signal of down, consistent with a market that is cooling toward balance and a market temperature characterized as neutral.
4. The rental side is strengthening with a median market rent of $1,895 and a rent year-over-year trend of up; at the same time, elevated interest rate pressure and current 30-year fixed mortgage rates of 6.53% (versus the 2026 annual average of 6.66%) create mixed affordability dynamics that may keep buyer demand cautious.
