The contracting inventory levels, however, may offer some underlying support, but current conditions imply that sellers may need to demonstrate greater price discipline to facilitate transactions.
A significant divergence is observed in the higher price tiers, with the average listing price declining by 20.2% year-over-year, considerably steeper than the 6.1% year-over-year decrease in the median listing price. This disparity suggests softness at the upper end of the market segment.
