What this means

Supply. There are 0% more homes for sale than the 2017-19 norm, so buyers have more to choose from than before the pandemic.
Negotiating. Buyer leverage is moderate (51/100; U.S.: 54) (as of Jan 2025): homes typically sell at or above asking (100.1% of list) (as of Dec 2020); 0% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%) (as of Apr 2025).
Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $79 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
