Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood's primary market indicator, the median sold price, is $194,500, representing the most reliable snapshot of recent transaction-level value in the ZIP code.
  2. There is a notable gap between the median listing price of $279,500 and the median sold price of $194,500, which may indicate pricing friction between seller expectations and realized transaction prices.
  3. The market shows slower sales velocity with a median days on market of 320, alongside a profile of relatively constrained active supply in the analyzed sample, which suggests liquidity is moderate and transactions may require longer marketing times.
  4. Macro and demand signals show the price year-over-year trend is up, the rent year-over-year trend is up, the market temperature is neutral, and interest rate pressure is elevated — notably, current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in the 48202 area are approximately 6.7%, which is 0.8% higher than the 5.9% average observed for typical loans originated earlier in 2026.
