Market Signals & Indicators

Negotiating Leverage

The high pending ratio underscores a rapid pace of transactions, placing considerable pressure on available inventory. This environment suggests that properties are being absorbed quickly, which typically translates to less negotiating flexibility for demand-side participants and emphasizes price discipline for properties entering the market.

Luxury Segment

The average listing price has increased by 13.6% year-over-year, significantly outpacing the 6.9% year-over-year rise in the median listing price. However, the median price per square foot has declined by 5.0% over the past year. This divergence, coupled with the elevated average-vs-median spread, suggests some softness or re-evaluation at the higher price tiers.
