Key Findings

1. The most reliable indicator of recent transaction levels is the median sold price of $349,500, which identifies the neighborhood's representative recent sale and suggests market value is anchored near that level rather than at asking prices.

2. There is a notable gap between the median listing price of $429,000 and the median sold price of $349,500, which may indicate seller expectations are higher than realized transaction prices and suggests pricing friction during negotiations.

3. Liquidity appears subdued: the median days on market of 86 points to slower sales velocity and, combined with elevated inventory relative to sales activity in the analyzed sample, suggests buyers have more time to negotiate and sellers may need to be flexible.

4. Market context metrics support a cautious outlook: year-over-year pricing is flat, market temperature is neutral, rent is trending down, and interest rate pressure is moderate, indicating a balanced but cooling market where price appreciation is not currently driving transactions.
