What this means
- Prices. Home values are down 5.3% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), 30% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. Listings are 50% below the 2017-19 norm and falling (−50% vs. a year ago): still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is low (10/100; U.S.: 54): homes typically sell at or above asking (100.0% of list) (as of Feb 2026); 0% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 15% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $41k 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 $66 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. No clear direction: likely −8% to +8% over the next 12 months (60% chance of a rise).
Next 12 months
No clear direction
A rise is somewhat more likely than a fall, but not by enough to call. Likely change: −7.8% to +8.5% (80% range; middle estimate +1.4%), chance of a rise 60%, of a 5%+ drop 17%.
