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 32/100, supply score 25, homes go under contract 15.3% slower than the US median, at 114% of US prices. See the sale evidence ↓
Tenant economics are strong. Median household income $97K, +0.6% YoY (ZIP); renters hold 28.4% of ZIP households. See the people evidence ↓

What would change this read: the median listing price is −7.2% YoY. inventory, +8.0% YoY, is the number to watch.
