Market Signals & Indicators

Negotiating Leverage

The contracting inventory and accelerated pace of sales, as evidenced by the declining median days on market and rising pending ratio, suggest an environment where properties are moving more quickly. This shift implies reduced negotiating flexibility for purchasers and increased pressure for timely decisions, reflecting stronger demand absorption.

Luxury Segment

The average listing price increased by 0.8% year-over-year, while the median listing price declined by 1.3% over the same period. This divergence, alongside a 7.5% year-over-year decline in the price-reduced share, suggests that while the broader market shows strength, the higher-priced segment exhibits some nuanced dynamics but no distinct signal of luxury-segment softness in this dataset.

Supply Dynamics

65 active listings represent the current floor, with new supply arriving at roughly 38 per month.
