Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood's primary market indicator is the median sold price — $433,000 — which reflects recent transaction-level value and should be used as the definitive comparator when assessing comps and pricing decisions (representative recent sale).

  2. The median listing price is $447,500, above the median sold price, which may indicate seller pricing optimism or listing-side expectations; this pricing friction suggests underwriters and buyers should rely on recent solds rather than asking prices when setting offers.

  3. Liquidity shows mixed signals: the median days on market is 262 days despite a hot market temperature, which may reflect slower sales velocity tied to listing/sold price disconnects and the current elevated interest rate pressure that could be constraining some buyer segments.

  4. Rental and value context support continued interest: median market rent is $1,900 and median price per square foot is $322, with rent year-over-year trend listed as up; investors should validate cash-flow assumptions against these exact rent and price-per-square-foot figures rather than extrapolating yields.

Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood's primary market indicator, the median sold price is $235,000, which aligns with the observed up price year-over-year trend and supports the characterization of the market as hot.

  2. The median days on market is 332, indicating slower sales velocity and extended holding periods that may reflect pricing friction or buyer decision lag despite strong headline pricing.

  3. Sample-level supply appears as a relatively constrained active supply in the analyzed sample, which may support continued upward pressure on realized prices when matched with current demand conditions.

  4. The median market rent is $1,850 and the rent year-over-year trend is up, while interest rate pressure is elevated (elevated), suggesting rental demand is strengthening even as financing costs remain a caution for buyers and investors.
