Market Signals & Indicators

Negotiating Leverage

The current environment suggests that supply is gaining momentum, providing more opportunities for negotiation and potentially extending the timeline for transactions. The expansion in inventory places increased pressure on listing price discipline, as a wider selection of properties is available to prospective buyers. While the pace of sales, as indicated by days on market, remains relatively efficient, the overall absorption rate points to a more deliberate transaction process.

Luxury Segment

The average listing price has grown 5.2% year-over-year, which is less than the 9.0% growth in the median listing price, while median price per square foot increased by 4.2% over the past year. This suggests some divergence in price appreciation between the broader market and the higher-priced segments, but no distinct luxury-segment softness is indicated by these metrics.

Supply Dynamics

276 active listings represent the current floor, with new supply arriving at roughly 120 per month.
