Market Signals & Indicators

Negotiating Leverage

With a pending ratio of 0.43 and a rising share of price reductions, prospective buyers may find increased leverage in negotiating terms. The current inventory dynamics, characterized by a slight year-over-year decline in active listings but a more pronounced drop in new listings, coupled with a lengthening of property marketing periods (median days on market at 53), suggest that price discipline is becoming more prominent. The pace of transactions implies that properties may remain on the market for longer, offering more opportunity for selective engagement.

Luxury Segment

While the median listing price declined by 1.6% year-over-year, the average listing price increased by 1.2% over the same period, suggesting varied performance across price segments. However, with the median $/sqft showing a slight year-over-year decrease of 0.6%, there is no distinct signal of elevated luxury-segment softness in this dataset beyond potential price stratification.

1,415 active listings represent the current floor, with new supply arriving at roughly 524 per month.
