What this means
- Prices. Home values are up 4.2% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), but still 11% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. There are 11% more homes for sale than the 2017-19 norm and falling (−7% vs. a year ago), so buyers have more to choose from than before the pandemic.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is moderate (46/100; U.S.: 54): homes typically sell at or above asking (101.9% of list); 25% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 21% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $55k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,583 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $104 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. Leaning up: likely −6% to +10% over the next 12 months (70% chance of a rise).
