What this means
- Valuation. Prices are roughly in line with local incomes (+6% vs. this area's pre-2020 price-to-income norm).
- Prices. Home values are up 15.2% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%).
- Supply. Listings are 44% below the 2017-19 norm: still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is moderate (63/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 23.6% below their final list price (as of Jul 2025); 50% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 20% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $46k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $996 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $118 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. Leaning up: likely −5% to +11% over the next 12 months (75% chance of a rise).
