What this means
- Prices. Home values are up 11.2% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%).
- Supply. Listings are 60% below the 2017-19 norm: still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is low (15/100; U.S.: 54): homes typically sell at or above asking (105.8% of list); 33% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 27% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $65k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,009 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $122 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. Leaning up: likely −3% to +13% over the next 12 months (82% chance of a rise).
