Key Findings

  1. The primary market-value signal is the 241,520 median sold price, which establishes recent transaction-based value and suggests that the neighborhood’s realized pricing is below the 277,450 median listing price — this gap may indicate pricing friction as sellers’ asking prices appear higher than representative recent sale levels (softening seller expectations).

  2. The market shows slower liquidity with a 149 median days on market, which points to reduced sales velocity and, when combined with elevated inventory relative to sales, suggests moderate buyer leverage and time for price discovery rather than rapid turnover.

  3. Price momentum is positive on a year-over-year basis — the price year-over-year trend is up — while the market temperature is neutral, indicating appreciation pressure exists but overall balance between buyers and sellers (up and neutral).

  4. Rental fundamentals show a 1,525 median market rent with rent year-over-year trend flat, and the median price per square foot is 175; given moderate interest rate pressure, these signals together suggest cautious buyer affordability dynamics and stable rental demand (moderate interest rate pressure and flat rent growth).

Key Findings

  1. The primary market value signal is the median sold price; recent transaction activity appears to show stable pricing pressure while liquidity shows slower sales velocity and elevated inventory relative to sales, so prioritize comparables from closed sales over listing prices when underwriting offers.

  2. The median price per square foot — 162 indicates a clear unit-value benchmark for valuation and price adjustments; when pricing or negotiating, align offers and repair allowances to this per‑square‑foot reference rather than relying on asking price outliers. up year-over-year price trend at the ZIP-code level supports cautious optimism for moderate appreciation.

  3. Rental demand context is supported by the median market rent — 1,025, which underpins buy-to-rent cashflow assumptions; with rent year-over-year trend reported as flat, expect limited near-term upside from rent growth, so stress-test pro formas at current rent levels.

  4. Market temperature is reported as neutral, and interest rate pressure is moderate; this combination suggests a balanced negotiation environment where sellers may need to be realistic on price or terms to achieve timely closings, and buyers should expect incremental concessions rather than large market-wide discounts.
