Market Signals & Indicators

Negotiating Leverage

Price discipline remains relevant, but the overall increase in available properties points to a moderated pace of transaction.

Luxury Segment

The average listing price has increased by 8.8% year-over-year, outpacing the 0.1% increase in median listing price, and the median $/sqft also rose by 8.3%. This suggests potential for robust performance in the higher-priced segments despite overall market stabilization.
