Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood’s primary market signal is the $116,000 median sold price, which represents the most reliable indicator of realized value and recent transaction activity; the gap with the $89,950 median listing price may indicate pricing friction where seller expectations and recent sale levels diverge, suggesting buyers can reference recent sales when making offers.
  2. Market velocity is subdued: the 266 median days on market signals slower sales velocity and prolonged time-to-contract, which may pressure sellers to price competitively or offer concessions to achieve a sale within a reasonable timeframe.
  3. Inventory context appears as a relatively constrained active supply in the analyzed sample, paired with moderate transaction activity; this balance, together with the neutral market temperature, suggests a balanced negotiating environment rather than a distinctly seller- or buyer-favored market.
  4. Rental and rate dynamics present mixed signals for investors: the $1,250 median market rent is rising (rent up), while elevated interest rate pressure and a current 30-year fixed mortgage rate averaging 6.74% mean financing costs remain a headwind for leveraged purchases, so underwriting should stress-test cash flow at mid-6% mortgage rates.
