Market Trends & Context
Understanding Market Temperature
A Hot market indicates strong buyer demand with limited inventory, typically characterized by rising prices, quick sales (low days on market), and inventory levels below historical averages.
Key Findings
-
The neighborhood's median sold price is 299,000, which should be treated as the primary indicator of market value and recent transaction activity; the fact that the median sold price exceeds the median listing price of 275,000 supports a hot marketTemperature and suggests sellers are frequently achieving at-or-above asking prices in completed transactions.
-
The median days on market is 280, which points to a slower sales velocity and meaningful pricing friction that may indicate longer decision timelines or conditional negotiation processes despite the hotter market temperature.
-
The median price per square foot is 225 and the median market rent is 1,800, providing a consistent valuation reference for both SFR and condominium comparisons; additionally, rent year-over-year trend is up, which supports sustained rental demand as a backstop for valuations.
-
Risk factors to monitor: price year-over-year trend is down and interest rate pressure is elevated, which together introduce downside sensitivity; combined with a relatively constrained active supply in the analyzed sample, these signals suggest pricing may be vulnerable to broader rate-driven demand shifts even as recent sold prices remain elevated.

Market Trends & Context
Understanding Market Temperature
A Hot market indicates strong buyer demand with limited inventory, typically characterized by rising prices, quick sales (low days on market), and inventory levels below historical averages.
Key Findings
-
The neighborhood's primary value indicator is the median sold price 166,000, which should be treated as the representative recent sale level when setting seller expectations or making purchase offers.
-
Median days on market 281 signals slower sales velocity and potential pricing friction; sellers may need clearer pricing alignment to accelerate transactions even though the marketTemperature is hot.
-
Price year-over-year trend is down while the median price per square foot 167 and rising rental demand (median market rent 1,900 with rent year-over-year trend up) suggest rental economics provide underlying support—investors should weigh slower sale cadence against improving rent trends.
-
Interest rate pressure elevated combined with a relatively constrained active supply in the analyzed sample suggests buyers may face higher financing costs while sellers should prioritize realistic pricing and clear marketing to convert the slower-moving listings.
