Key Findings

  1. The primary indicator of recent market value is the median sold price $1,481,000, which anchors pricing expectations and suggests realized transaction values are below asking; note the median listing price $1,660,000 indicates a meaningful gap between seller expectations and completed sales, which may indicate pricing friction.
  2. The market shows slower sales velocity with a median days on market 85 days, which, combined with the listing-to-sale price gap, suggests moderate liquidity pressure rather than immediate turnover in all segments.
  3. Market heat is strong overall: the reported market temperature hot supports the persistence of demand, while the price year-over-year trend flat signals limited upward price momentum—this combination supports continued buyer activity but cautions on robust appreciation.
  4. Interest rates and rental dynamics are a key framing factor: interest rate pressure elevated and local financing context (current 30-year fixed rates ~6.5% vs 5.9% earlier in 2026) increase carrying costs for buyers, while median market rent $2,499 and the rent year-over-year trend up provide supportive fundamentals for investor and rental demand; together these signals mean buyers may be more rate-sensitive and focused on value, elevated interest rate pressure.
