Market Signals & Indicators

Negotiating Leverage

The current market dynamics suggest a moderating pace of absorption. While inventory has contracted year-over-year, the pending ratio indicates that demand is not intensely outpacing supply. This environment encourages price discipline, as the market is not exerting strong upward pressure on pricing through rapid turnover.

Luxury Segment

The average listing price has declined by 6.4% year-over-year, contrasting with a 1.4% increase in the median listing price. This divergence suggests a potential softening in the higher-priced segments of the market, where pricing may be under greater pressure.

Supply Dynamics

627 active listings represent the current floor, with new supply arriving at roughly 244 per month.
