Key Findings

1. The neighborhood's primary market signal is the median sold price of 133,500, which should drive valuation and negotiation expectations; with the median listing price at 165,000, sellers may need to reconcile asking prices with recent transaction levels to avoid prolonged marketing—up price momentum at the broader-market level supports cautious listing optimism.

2. The median days on market is 226, a materially long sales timeline that indicates slower sales velocity and potential pricing friction; sellers should plan for extended marketing periods and buyers can expect greater negotiation opportunity—slower sales velocity.

3. The local pricing fabric shows a median price per square foot of 112 alongside a median market rent of 1,175, providing concrete benchmarks for comp selection and unit-level pricing; investors and appraisers should use these exact metrics when assessing comparable value and rent-support assumptions—contextual comparables.

4. Market conditions are described as neutral in temperature with interest rate pressure at a moderate level and rent trends moving down; given Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates averaging approximately 6.30% (higher than sub-6% earlier in 2026), stakeholders should expect measured buyer sensitivity and factor financing costs into offer strategies—moderate interest rate pressure.
