Market Trends & Context
Understanding Market Temperature
A Neutral market indicates balanced conditions where neither buyers nor sellers have a strong advantage, typically characterized by flat price trends, extended but stable days on market, and moderate inventory relative to sales.
Key Findings
-
The neighborhood's primary market indicator, median sold price, is $275,000, which serves as the best representation of realized market value and recent transaction activity; the gap between the median listing price of $316,900 and the median sold price suggests pricing friction where seller expectations exceed recent sale levels, so well-priced homes are likely to outperform other listings. pricing gap
-
The median days on market is 269, indicating slower sales velocity and extended marketing timelines; this appears to reflect a market that requires more time to transact rather than immediate turnover, which may favor buyers with patience or sellers who price competitively. slower sales velocity
-
The market shows underlying appreciation signals: the median price per square foot is $180 and the year-over-year price trend is up, while the overall market temperature is classified as neutral, suggesting balanced conditions with selective pockets of strength—particularly at entry-level price points. up

Market Trends & Context
Understanding Market Temperature
A Neutral market indicates balanced conditions where neither buyers nor sellers have a strong advantage, typically characterized by flat price trends, extended but stable days on market, and moderate inventory relative to sales.
Key Findings
-
The neighborhood's primary market indicator is the 169,000 median sold price, which represents realized value in recent transactions and suggests pricing is tracking just below the 177,400 median listing price — this gap may indicate listing-to-sale negotiation pressure and moderate pricing friction.
-
With a 169,000 median sold price and a median days on market of 412, sales velocity appears slower than typical market turnover, which may indicate slower transaction volume despite a generally balanced market temperature.
-
The 169,000 median sold price combined with a median price per square foot of 146 and a median market rent of 1,525 suggests entry-level and value segments are supporting rent-growth trends; note that rent is up year-over-year while price momentum is also up, indicating continued demand for income-oriented purchases.
-
Liquidity and underwriting caution: the market temperature is neutral and interest rate pressure is elevated, so even though the 169,000 median sold price points to stable-to-rising values, elevated financing costs may compress buyer purchasing power and extend time-to-contract; sellers should consider pricing and concession strategies to align with current cost-of-credit conditions.
