Key Findings

  1. The primary market indicator, the median sold price is 262,000, which represents the best signal of realized value and recent transaction activity and should be prioritized over asking prices when valuing SFR and condo assets in 45202.
  2. There is a wide gap between the median listing price of 813,000 and the median sold price of 262,000, which may indicate pricing friction and elevated seller expectations versus recent transaction levels; appraisers and agents should expect negotiation and selective price adjustments rather than immediate premium realizations.
  3. Market velocity appears slow: the median days on market is 353, which suggests prolonged marketing periods and slower transaction turnover even as the market temperature is reported as neutral; sellers should plan for extended carrying costs and buyers may have more time to inspect value.
  4. Rental strength and financing context support cautious optimism for investors: median market rent is 1,625 and rents are trending up while property prices are also trending up; however, interest rate pressure is reported as moderate and local 30‑year fixed mortgage rates average 6.63%, which may temper buyer purchasing power and underwriting assumptions.
