Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood’s primary market indicator, median sold price = 197,000, signals recent transaction values near this level and should be treated as the representative recent sale benchmark for pricing decisions; up price momentum is indicated by broader trend data.
  2. Liquidity appears slow given a median days on market = 269, which suggests longer listing-to-sale cycles and pricing friction — sellers may need to be patient or price opportunistically to match buyer expectations.
  3. Relative valuation context is provided by the median price per square foot = 126 and a median market rent = 900, which together frame purchase vs. rental cost comparisons for investors and owner-occupiers without implying a specific yield; use these as local comparables when setting offers or rents.
  4. Broader market forces show a neutral market temperature alongside elevated interest rate pressure, which may constrain affordability and supports conservative underwriting and longer sales timelines despite the up year-over-year price trend.
