Key Findings
- The median sold price is 95,000, which serves as the primary indicator of realized market value and suggests modest downward pressure relative to broader Memphis — down price momentum may warrant conservative seller pricing and buyer contingency planning given current conditions.
- There is a meaningful gap between the median listing price (88,250) and the median sold price (95,000), which may indicate pricing friction where seller expectations differ from recent transaction levels; sellers should consider pricing closer to recent sale benchmarks to improve traction.
- Market velocity appears slow based on the median days on market of 306, consistent with a market that may require extended marketing periods and buyer patience; this slower sales velocity, combined with elevated interest rate pressure, suggests agents should plan longer listing campaigns and emphasize financing flexibility.
- Local rent trends are positive with median market rent at 995 and rent year-over-year trend showing up, while borrowing conditions reflect elevated pressure with average 30-year rates around 6.53%; investors should weigh improving rent dynamics against higher financing costs when assessing near-term returns.
