Key Findings

  1. median sold price: $500,000 is the primary indicator of market value and recent transaction activity in 34698; the notable gap versus the median listing price: $614,900 may indicate pricing friction or seller optimism and wider ask-to-sale spread that buyers can leverage in negotiations.

  2. median days on market: 205 signals slower sales velocity and reduced transaction tempo, which may indicate extended time to convert listings into closed sales and creates more room for buyer concessions.

  3. median price per square foot: $159 combined with a median market rent: $2,100 and the reported rent year-over-year trend of down suggests rental demand is weakening even as price-per-sqft remains a reference for valuation.

  4. market temperature: neutral paired with interest rate pressure: elevated suggests a more balanced market overall but with elevated financing constraints that could sustain buyer caution and modestly favor negotiation leverage for purchasers.

Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood's primary indicator of market value is the median sold price 195,500, which represents the most reliable signal of recent transaction activity and should be the focal point for valuation and offer strategy.

  2. There is a notable gap between the median listing price 218,950 and the median sold price 195,500, which may indicate pricing friction and suggests sellers' expectations remain above recent transaction levels; buyers may be able to negotiate toward realized market value.

  3. Market velocity appears slow with a median days on market of 300, which suggests softening near-term liquidity and may increase buyer leverage on terms and contingencies.

  4. Macro and rental signals provide contextual constraints: price year-over-year trend is flat, market temperature is neutral, rent year-over-year trend is down, and interest rate pressure is elevated; together these factors suggest a stabilizing market with caution for investment purchases and underwriting.
