Key Findings

  1. The primary indicator of recent transaction value is the median sold price of $574,500, which points to stable-to-moderate appreciation when considered alongside broader price signals and actual closed transactions.

  2. Liquidity appears muted with a median days on market of 444, which suggests slower sales velocity and potential pricing friction despite a market that overall reads as neutral in temperature.

  3. Price sensitivity persists at the unit level: the median price per square foot is $869, and investors should treat recent sales as the most reliable signal for valuing SFR and condo opportunities rather than asking prices.

  4. Rents and financing dynamics are important near-term drivers — median market rent is $2,600 and rents are trending up, while interest rate pressure is elevated; together these factors may support pricing but could also moderate buyer activity, leaving the market appearing relatively balanced rather than one-sided.
