Key Findings

  1. The most reliable indicator of recent transactions is the median sold price, 307,450, which anchors market value and suggests realized pricing is below current asking levels; pricing gap vs. listings may indicate sellers need to adjust expectations.

  2. The market shows softer pricing momentum with a year-over-year price trend of down and a cold market temperature; combined with a median days on market of 231, this points to slower sales velocity and reduced liquidity.

  3. Seller expectations appear elevated: the median listing price is 359,500, which exceeds the median sold price and suggests pricing friction between asking and realized transaction prices.

  4. Rental dynamics are mixed: the median market rent is 1,970 with a rent year-over-year trend of up, but elevated interest rate pressure (elevated) continues to constrain overall affordability and demand for purchases.
