Key Findings

  1. The primary indicator of local market value is the median sold price, $553,000, which establishes recent transaction levels and—when compared to the median listing price of $469,500—may indicate pricing friction between asking and achieved prices in this ZIP code; the market is currently hot and price momentum is up so this gap appears to reflect strong realized sale prices rather than weak demand.
  2. Liquidity appears muted on a time-to-contract basis: the median days on market is 249, which suggests slower sales velocity despite a hot market temperature and year-over-year price gains; this may indicate extended negotiation timelines or a higher share of conditional/complex transactions.
  3. Supply conditions in the analyzed sample point to relatively constrained active supply versus recent sales, supporting realized price strength; the median price per square foot is $364, which reinforces elevated per-unit valuation and suggests continued pricing pressure for SFR and condo stock in the submarket.
  4. Rental dynamics and financing headwinds are a mixed signal: the median market rent is $1,993 with rent trends up, but interest rate pressure is elevated, which may temper buyer affordability and can lengthen time-to-sale even as rents and sale prices trend higher.
