Key Findings

  1. median sold price (the primary indicator of market value and recent transaction activity) is not available in the provided metrics, so a transaction-based central price point cannot be stated from this dataset; this absence limits direct sale-price comparisons to listing-side signals. data unavailable
  2. median listing price is 465,000 and, together with a median price per square foot of 219, suggests current seller pricing expectations; without a reported median sold price, this listing-side snapshot may not fully reflect recent completed transactions and pricing friction may exist.
  3. Market liquidity appears muted: the sample shows elevated inventory relative to sales alongside a median days on market of 121, which may indicate slower sales velocity and a move toward a more balanced market rather than acute scarcity or heat.
  4. Interest-rate dynamics are an important headwind: the metrics show interest rate pressure is elevated, with current 30-year fixed mortgage rates at 6.375% compared to a 5.99% average observed in early 2026; higher financing costs may temper buyer willingness and prolong listing lifecycles.
  5. median market rent is 1,636 and rent year-over-year trend is up, which provides a supportive income signal for SFR/condo owners and may partially offset price pressure from higher financing costs, though this does not replace missing transaction-level sold-price data.
