Market Signals & Indicators

Negotiating Leverage

With a pending ratio of 0.35 and an increase in active listings of nearly 30% over the past year, the market is characterized by a slower pace of transactions. The elevated inventory levels suggest that properties may remain on the market for longer durations, potentially allowing for greater negotiation on pricing terms. This environment places increased pressure on price discipline for new listings and active inventory.

Luxury Segment

The average listing price of $666,046 is notably higher than the median listing price of $483,950, indicating a segment of higher-priced properties in the market. However, with average listing prices growing at 2.2% year-over-year and median $/sqft increasing at 3.8% year-over-year, there is no distinct signal of softness within the luxury segment in this dataset.

Supply Dynamics

484 active listings represent the current floor, with new supply arriving at roughly 100 per month.
