Key Findings

  1. The primary indicator of recent market value is the median sold price of 585,000, which represents the most reliable signal of transaction-level pricing; the median listing price of 599,000 suggests modest pricing friction between seller expectations and completed sales. flat price trend and a neutral market temperature support a largely balanced market.

  2. Liquidity appears muted given a median days on market of 197, which points to slower sales velocity and longer listing lifecycles that may require sellers to be patient or adjust terms; this aligns with a down rent trend that can increase negotiation leverage for renters and potentially reduce investor urgency.

  3. Supply conditions in the analyzed sample indicate a relatively constrained active supply versus recent sales activity, which, combined with a flat price year-over-year trend, suggests limited upward price pressure but continued competition in desirable segments—pricing should be set to reflect realized sold values rather than aspirational asking prices.

  4. Financial conditions are a material headwind: interest rate pressure is elevated, which likely moderates buyer purchasing power and supports a cautious stance on aggressive pricing; concurrently, the median price per square foot of 303 and median market rent of 1,550 provide reference points for valuation and rent-to-price comparisons when evaluating SFR and condominium opportunities.

Key Findings

  1. Median sold price 290,000 is the primary indicator of recent market value in 97223 and represents the most reliable signal of transaction-level pricing; given the available data, this figure should guide near-term valuation and underwriting decisions rather than asking prices. stable transaction-level pricing

  2. Median days on market 308 suggests slower sales velocity and extended marketing periods relative to typical seasonal norms; this extended time-to-contract may indicate pricing friction or buyer negotiation leverage and appears to be reducing liquidity rather than reflecting aggressive bidding activity

  3. Median price per square foot 251 provides a consistent unit-price benchmark for comparing nearby comps and supports conservative pricing strategies when paired with the median sold price; use this per‑sqft figure to align new listings with recent closed transactions and to flag outlier asking prices. contextual pricing benchmark

  4. Median market rent 1,395 combined with the rent year-over-year trend being down signals weakening rental income expectations for investors and greater renter negotiation power; investors should stress-test cash flow models under softer rent scenarios

  5. Price year-over-year trend flat and market temperature neutral indicate a balanced market with limited upward pressure on values, while interest rate pressure being elevated suggests continued affordability headwinds that may keep transaction volumes muted; adopt conservative underwriting assumptions and prepare for protracted listing periods rather than rapid appreciation. balanced but rate‑sensitive
