Market Signals & Indicators

Negotiating Leverage

With a pending ratio of 0.14, the absorption pace of available inventory is significantly slow, placing substantial pressure on sellers to adjust pricing. Elevated days on market and the rising share of price reductions suggest that buyers are exercising considerable price discipline, extending the time properties spend on the market.

Luxury Segment

The average listing price increased by 19.0% year-over-year, outpacing the 15.4% increase in the median listing price, and the median $/sqft saw a more modest 5.5% year-over-year gain. This divergence suggests a potential softness in the higher-priced segment, where values may be adjusting at a different pace than the broader market.

Supply Dynamics

196 active listings represent the current floor, with new supply arriving at roughly 52 per month.
