What this means
- Valuation. Prices are 11% above what local incomes have historically supported (this area's pre-2020 price-to-income ratio).
- Prices. Home values are down 2.8% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), 7% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. Listings are 25% below the 2017-19 norm: still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is moderate (39/100; U.S.: 54): homes typically sell at or above asking (103.4% of list); 12% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 53% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $98k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,244 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $113 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. No clear direction: likely −9% to +7% over the next 12 months (53% chance of a rise).
