Key Findings
- The neighborhood's primary market value is the median sold price $498,000, which anchors recent transaction activity and should be treated as the most reliable local price signal.
- The median listing price $424,995 sits below the median sold price $498,000, which may indicate pricing friction between asking and completed transactions in the analyzed sample.
- The median days on market 210 indicates slower sales velocity and, when combined with elevated inventory relative to sales activity, suggests reduced liquidity and longer negotiation windows.
- Price year-over-year trend is down while market temperature is neutral, and rent year-over-year trend is down, implying cautious price momentum; interest rate pressure is moderate with current 30-year fixed mortgage rates around 6.76% (0.46% higher than the 6.30% spring 2026 average), which may further temper buyer urgency.
