Increased time on market and a modest decrease in the share of price reductions suggest a market where price discipline is challenged, and inventory pressure is minimal. Buyers are encountering a broad selection of properties without significant competition.
The average listing price has seen a substantial year-over-year increase of 20.9%, while the median $/sqft has declined by 3.1% and the median listing price is down 3.1%. The notable spread between the average and median listing prices, coupled with differing price movements, suggests some divergence in higher-price-tier dynamics, potentially indicating softness in the luxury segment.
