Market Signals & Indicators
With a high pending ratio of 0.85, the market exhibits significant inventory pressure, favoring rapid transaction paces. Negotiating leverage for buyers is constrained by the swift absorption of available properties, demanding price discipline for offers on properties. The limited supply relative to demand suggests competitive bidding conditions for many listings.
The average listing price has declined by 1.3% year-over-year, while the median listing price also contracted by 2.7% year-over-year. The average-versus-median spread indicates potential softening at higher price tiers, although median $/sqft shows a slight positive trend. This suggests some divergence in performance across price segments within the market.
