Rental Market
Note: The relationship between property values and rental rates reflects different market dynamics. Higher-priced properties may have lower rental yields due to factors such as luxury market positioning, owner-occupancy preferences, or long-term appreciation strategies rather than immediate rental income maximization.
Property Taxes
Liquidity & Velocity

Market Trends & Context

Key Findings
- The primary market value indicator is the median sold price of $346,701, which, when compared to the median listing price of $297,900, suggests stronger realized sale pricing relative to asking in the analyzed sample and may indicate sellers are achieving premiums on completed transactions.
- Liquidity appears constrained by slower velocity: the median days on market is 51, combined with elevated inventory relative to sales in the analyzed sample, which suggests longer marketing periods and increased negotiation leverage for buyers rather than rapid turnover.
- Price momentum shows a positive signal: the price year-over-year trend is up while the market temperature is neutral, creating a balanced but cautiously appreciating environment; however, interest rate pressure is elevated, which could limit buyer purchasing power and slow further price acceleration.
- Rental dynamics are softening: the median market rent is $1,466 and the rent year-over-year trend is down, indicating weakening rental income growth that may affect investor returns and warranting caution for buy-to-rent strategies.
