Market Read

A tight-supply market with no rental pool to price against. Demand is visible here; the rent math is not.

Demand outpaces supply. Hotness 59/100, supply score 85, homes go under contract 23.8% faster than the US median, at 109% of US prices. See the sale evidence ↓
Tenant economics are strong. Median household income $101K, +3.3% YoY (ZIP); renters hold 36.8% of ZIP households. See the people evidence ↓

What would change this read: the median listing price is −0.1% YoY. inventory, −1.8% YoY, is the number to watch.
