Market Read

A market with no active rental pool to price against. The sale-side figures below are the whole picture.

Demand is unremarkable. Hotness 36/100, supply score 18, homes go under contract 20.5% slower than the US median, at 212% of US prices. See the sale evidence ↓
Tenant economics are mixed. Median household income $85K, −1.0% YoY (ZIP); renters hold 33.5% of ZIP households. See the people evidence ↓

What would change this read: the median listing price is −5.5% YoY. inventory, +4.2% YoY, is the number to watch.
