Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood's median sold price is 479,500, which serves as the primary indicator of market value and recent transaction activity; with price year-over-year trend up this suggests modest appreciation while actual transactions are generally settling below the median listing price of 545,000.

  2. Median days on market is 96, indicating slower sales velocity; combined with elevated inventory relative to sales activity, this suggests increased negotiating leverage for buyers and greater pricing friction for sellers in recent transactions.

  3. Median price per square foot is 188 and median market rent is 2,200, with rent year-over-year trend flat; this combination points to rental stability and a moderate price density for single-family and condominium stock in the area.

  4. Market temperature is neutral while interest rate pressure is elevated, which implies that financing costs are a constraining factor that may moderate buyer urgency even as market balance remains relatively even.
