What this means

• Prices. Home values are up 6.1% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%).
• Supply. Listings are 100% below the 2017-19 norm and falling (−100% vs. a year ago): still a tight market.
• Negotiating. Buyer leverage is high (74/100; U.S.: 54) (as of Jun 2025): homes sell for about 9.3% below their final list price (as of Aug 2025); 0% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%) (as of May 2025).
• Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 19% 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 $984 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
• Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $241 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding. Flood isn't covered by standard homeowners insurance.
• Outlook. No clear direction: likely −8% to +8% over the next 12 months (57% chance of a rise).
