Market Signals & Indicators

Negotiating Leverage

The expansion of active inventory and the moderation in the pending ratio suggest a market where available supply is outstripping immediate demand. This environment generally favors buyers who may find more opportunities for price discipline, particularly given the increasing median days on market and the recent declines in median listing prices.

Luxury Segment

Despite the overall market conditions, the average listing price has risen 6.5% year-over-year, while the median listing price has fallen. This divergence, coupled with a 21.8% year-over-year increase in median $/sqft, suggests potential shifts in higher-priced segments, although specific luxury-tier softness is not clearly delineated by this data set alone.
