Market Signals & Indicators

Negotiating Leverage

The current market dynamics suggest that demand absorption is lagging, leading to less urgency in transactions. The increase in new listings coupled with a moderate pending ratio creates an environment where price discipline from sellers becomes increasingly important. While inventory has contracted slightly, the overall conditions do not favor rapid transaction paces.

Luxury Segment

The average listing price increased 8.2% year-over-year, outstripping the 4.4% rise in median listing price, which could signal some relative strength at the higher end of the market, though median price per square foot grew by a more modest 1.4%.

593 active listings represent the current floor, with new supply arriving at roughly 234 per month.
