Key Findings

  1. $319,900 median sold price is the primary indicator of recent market value and suggests transaction prices are moderating in the neighborhood, with overall pricing trends reported as up.
  2. $347,250 median listing price sits above the median sold price, which may indicate pricing friction between seller expectations and recent transaction levels and suggests sellers may need to adjust to realize sales.
  3. 227 median days on market points to slower sales velocity and reduced transaction turnover, which—combined with a reported neutral market temperature—appears consistent with a balanced market rather than a clear seller or buyer advantage.
  4. $1,690 median market rent is trending down, while interest rate pressure is reported as moderate, a combination that may temper investor appetite and suggests monitoring rent trends before making acquisition decisions.
