This inventory pressure limits negotiating leverage for prospective buyers and promotes price discipline. The pace of absorption is further underscored by the decline in median days on market.

Luxury Segment

Average listing prices at $666,026 are currently below the median listing price of $694,500, and median price per square foot has declined by 4.8% year-over-year to $303. This suggests some price recalibration at higher price points, although the overall market dynamics remain robust.
