Key Findings

1. median sold price 234,515 is the most reliable indicator of recent transaction value in 78201; it suggests price stability when considered alongside a flat year-over-year price trend, indicating transactions are reflecting consistent market valuation rather than rapid appreciation or decline.

2. median sold price 234,515 sits below the median listing price 259,250, which may indicate a pricing gap between seller expectations and completed sales and suggests pricing friction that buyers can use in negotiations rather than a straightforward premium market.

3. median days on market 142 points to slower sales velocity and extended time-to-contract for SFR and condominium properties in the sample; this, combined with elevated inventory relative to sales activity, appears to create softer liquidity that may favor buyers seeking concessions or more time for due diligence.

4. Local demand and cost pressures: median market rent 1,180 and median price per square foot 173 are stable reference points while rent is trending down; elevated interest rate pressure (30-year fixed at 6.49%, ~0.3% above the early-2026 average) further constrains financing affordability and may continue to moderate transaction activity.

Key Findings

1. The median sold price is the primary indicator of market value and recent transaction activity for this neighborhood; however, a specific median sold price value is not provided in the available metrics, so recent transaction-level pricing cannot be quantified here. contextual

2. The median price per square foot (113) indicates stable unit pricing and aligns with the reported flat year‑over‑year price trend, suggesting limited upward or downward pressure on nominal sale prices in May 2026.

3. Market liquidity shows signs of elevated inventory relative to sales, which may indicate slower sales velocity and increased negotiation leverage for buyers despite moderate transaction volume.

4. Financing and rental signals are mixed: current 30‑year fixed mortgage rates (6.49% vs. an early‑2026 average of 6.19%) reflect elevated interest rate pressure, while the median market rent (999) is experiencing a down year‑over‑year trend, which together may constrain buyer purchasing power and reduce investor cash‑flow expectations.
