What this means
- Valuation. Prices are roughly in line with local incomes (−3% vs. this area's pre-2020 price-to-income norm).
- Prices. Home values are up 5.2% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%).
- Supply. There are 4% more homes for sale than the 2017-19 norm and rising (+23% vs. a year ago), so buyers have more to choose from than before the pandemic.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is high (74/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 3.6% below their final list price; 14% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 24% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $49k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,389 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Buy vs. rent. Buying costs about $505/mo more than renting a typical home (mortgage payment vs. typical rent).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $113 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. Leaning up: likely −6% to +9% over the next 12 months (69% chance of a rise).
