Key Findings
- The neighborhood's primary market indicator, the median sold price, is 868,000, representing the most reliable snapshot of recent transaction activity and suggesting current market value is tracking below seller expectations reflected by the median listing price of 912,500.
- Liquidity appears slowed: the median days on market is 326, which points to down market velocity and suggests slower sales velocity and pricing friction despite a neutral market temperature.
- Pricing trajectory is soft: price year-over-year trend shows down, while the gap between the median listing price and the median sold price implies sellers may need to adjust expectations to match realized transaction prices.
- Rents are strengthening and financing is constrained—median market rent is 3,150 with rent year-over-year trend up, while interest rate pressure is elevated (current 30‑year fixed mortgage rates are 6.53%, which is 0.55% higher than the earlier 2026 average), suggesting buy-versus-rent dynamics may favor investors or renters in the near term.
