Key Findings

  1. The primary indicator of recent market value is the median sold price: 208,000, which anchors transaction-based pricing for the neighborhood and should be treated as the representative recent sale level when advising sellers or buyers.
  2. There is a notable spread between the median listing price: 359,950 and the median sold price; this gap suggests pricing friction where seller expectations may be above realized transaction levels and requires tactical pricing to reach contract.
  3. Liquidity appears mixed: the median days on market: 240 points to slower sales velocity relative to typical market turnover and may indicate longer listing durations or selective buyer activity; this should be incorporated into time-to-sale expectations and marketing strategies. slower sales velocity
  4. Market drivers are positive but warrant caution: the price year-over-year trend: up and market temperature: hot support continued price strength, while rent year-over-year trend: up and a median market rent: 1,175 reinforce rental demand; however, moderate interest rate pressure (Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in Rockford, IL, are averaging approximately 6.53%) suggests financing sensitivity that could temper buyer urgency.
