Such conditions typically necessitate price discipline from prospective purchasers to secure properties.

Luxury Segment

The average listing price, at $625,361, is notably higher than the median listing price of $459,950, suggesting a significant spread. However, the average price experienced a modest 0.9% year-over-year growth, which is slower than the 2.4% year-over-year increase in median listing price, and $/sqft growth in the aggregate is positive.
