Market Signals & Indicators

Negotiating Leverage

With a pending ratio of 0.22, the current market dynamics indicate a considerable imbalance where supply significantly outpaces demand absorption. This environment places substantial pressure on sellers for price discipline, as the pace of sales is slow and inventory levels are not being absorbed efficiently. Negotiating leverage strongly favors those seeking to acquire property, given the elevated time on market and increased incidence of price reductions.

Luxury Segment

The average listing price of $428,936 notably exceeds the median listing price of $299,125, suggesting a premium segment that may be experiencing particular pricing challenges, as the average price has declined 1.6% year-over-year compared to a larger 8.3% year-over-year drop in the median price. However, without more granular data on price tiers, it is difficult to isolate distinct luxury-segment softness beyond this divergence.

Supply Dynamics

272 active listings represent the current floor, with new supply arriving at roughly 48 per month.
