Market Signals & Indicators

Negotiating Leverage

With a pending ratio of 0.43, the market exhibits a more measured pace of demand absorption, providing a wider selection for prospective purchasers. The rise in active and new listings suggests reduced inventory pressure, potentially allowing for more deliberate negotiation on price. Sellers may need to exercise greater price discipline to attract interest and secure transactions, as a higher share of listings are undergoing price reductions.

Luxury Segment

The average listing price increased by 4.3% year-over-year to $865,038, a slower pace than the 8.8% year-over-year growth in the median listing price. This disparity suggests some tempering at the higher price points, alongside a 6.6% year-over-year increase in the median $/sqft to $314.
