Key Findings

  1. The median sold price is 376,500, which serves as the primary indicator of recent market value and suggests transactions are occurring around this representative recent sale price; however, the market temperature is neutral, so pricing power between buyers and sellers appears balanced rather than one-sided.

  2. There is a persistent pricing gap between the median listing price of 392,000 and the median sold price of 376,500, which may indicate pricing friction as seller expectations remain above the representative recent sale level and could pressure time-to-contract outcomes.

  3. Market liquidity shows slower velocity: the median days on market is 359, which indicates protracted listing periods and suggests slower transaction volume that may require price adjustments or more aggressive marketing to accelerate sales.

  4. Macro and rental signals are mixed and relevant to investors: price year-over-year trend is down while rent year-over-year trend is up, and interest rate pressure is described as moderate; together these factors suggest cautious acquisition strategies and the need to weigh rising rents against softening prices and funding costs.
