Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood's primary market indicator, the $183,000 median sold price, shows recent transaction-level value and sits above the $169,950 median listing price, suggesting listing expectations are not materially outperforming realized sale prices; use the median sold price as the representative recent sale when setting or benchmarking offers.
  2. The median days on market 255 signals notably slower sales velocity and pricing friction, which may indicate that sellers need more realistic pricing or marketing to achieve timely closings under current conditions.
  3. Price momentum is soft: the price year-over-year trend is down while the market temperature is neutral, which together suggest a moderated, balanced market rather than a rapid shift to one side; expect stable but cautious negotiations between buyers and sellers.
  4. Rental fundamentals are strengthening—$1,695 median market rent with rent year-over-year trend up—even as interest rate pressure is elevated (current average 30-year fixed ~6.7%), so consider positioning properties either for longer marketing exposure to capture buyers or for rental conversion strategies where warranted; rising rents and elevated interest rate pressure should both factor into hold vs. sell decisions.
