What this means
- Prices. Home values are up 2.0% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%).
- Supply. Listings are 37% below the 2017-19 norm and rising (+9% vs. a year ago): still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is moderate (63/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 8.1% below their final list price; 13% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 38% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $67k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,236 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $174 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. No clear direction: likely −7% to +9% over the next 12 months (65% chance of a rise).
