Rental Market

Note: The relationship between property values and rental rates reflects different market dynamics. Higher-priced properties may have lower rental yields due to factors such as luxury market positioning, owner-occupancy preferences, or long-term appreciation strategies rather than immediate rental income maximization.

Property Taxes

Liquidity & Velocity

Note: A Sale-to-List Ratio near 100% can occur when properties sell at or near their final listing price after price adjustments during the listing period, even when initial listing prices differ significantly from sale prices.

Market Trends & Context

Note: Interest rate comparisons provide market context. The existing "Interest Rate Pressure" metric above shows the qualitative market impact.

Key Findings

1. The primary market indicator is the median sold price of 1,196,000, which represents the best signal of realized market value and recent transaction activity; this figure appears to anchor pricing expectations despite a notable gap with the median listing price of 630,000, suggesting pricing friction between seller expectations and final sale outcomes (representative recent sale).
2. The price year-over-year trend is down, indicating a softening in headline prices; this down trend, together with a neutral market temperature, suggests gradual normalization rather than abrupt weakness.
3. The median days on market is 323, a materially long selling timeframe that signals slower sales velocity and increased negotiation window; this extended market time may indicate pricing and liquidity adjustment rather than immediate distress.
4. Interest rate pressure is reflected in a current 30-year fixed mortgage rate of 6.375% (versus a 5.99% average in January 2026), which is an elevated financing cost that may constrain buyer purchasing power while rents are trending down—median market rent of 3,185 is also on a downward trajectory; both factors contribute to elevated borrowing pressure on buyers.
