What this means
- Valuation. Prices are roughly in line with local incomes (+3% vs. this area's pre-2020 price-to-income norm).
- Prices. Home values are up 1.5% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), but still 3% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. There are 31% more homes for sale than the 2017-19 norm, so buyers have more to choose from than before the pandemic.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is high (76/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 5.1% below their final list price; 23% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 18% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $32k 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 $180 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 (74% chance of a rise).
