Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood's primary indicator, median sold price, is 318,650, signaling realized market value and recent transaction activity; with price year-over-year trend up, expect modest appreciation and prioritize recent closed sales when setting comps given the relatively constrained active supply in the analyzed sample.
  2. The median listing price is 290,000 versus the recorded median sold price of 318,650, which suggests listing expectations in some cases sit below recent closed values; price offers should therefore be anchored to representative recent sales rather than asking prices to avoid leaving value on the table.
  3. Median days on market is 199, indicating slower sales velocity compared with rapid-turn markets; because the market temperature is neutral, this longer timeline may reflect buyer selection and pricing friction rather than broad market weakness—focus on condition and targeted pricing to improve time-to-contract.
  4. Median price per square foot is 190 and median market rent is 1,595, with rent year-over-year trend up; however, interest rate pressure is elevated, so investors should model rent growth carefully and stress-test cash flow against higher financing costs.
