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 54/100, supply score 71, homes go under contract 14.0% faster than the US median, at 235% of US prices. See the sale evidence ↓
Tenant economics are strong. Median household income $109K, +2.3% YoY (ZIP); renters hold 45.8% of ZIP households. See the people evidence ↓

What would change this read: the median listing price is −12.7% YoY. inventory, +6.0% YoY, is the number to watch.
