Key Findings

1. The primary indicator of market value and recent transaction activity is the median sold price 601,500, which signals continued price strength in realized sales and supports the characterization of the market as up in price trajectory.
2. The median listing price 625,000 sits above the median sold price, which may indicate pricing friction between seller expectations and final sale prices and suggests negotiation room for informed buyers.
3. The median days on market 237 points to slower sales velocity than typical rapid-turn markets, and this extended time-to-contract may reflect selective buyer behavior despite a generally hot market temperature.
4. Market structure is supported by a median price per square foot of 275 and a median market rent of 2,295, alongside a market temperature identified as hot with price and rent trends marked up; interest rate pressure is moderate with current 30-year fixed mortgage rates averaging approximately 6.5% to 6.75% as of June 2026, which may temper some buyer urgency while still supporting demand.
