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 29/100, supply score 54, homes go under contract 5.0% faster than the US median, at 69% of US prices. See the sale evidence ↓
Tenant economics are strong. Median household income $80K, +0.1% YoY (ZIP); renters hold 38.4% of ZIP households. See the people evidence ↓

What would change this read: the median listing price is −0.4% YoY. inventory, −6.6% YoY, is the number to watch.
