What this means
- Prices. Home values are down 4.8% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), 35% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. Listings are 100% below the 2017-19 norm: still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is moderate (46/100; U.S.: 54) (as of Oct 2022): homes sell for about 14.5% below their final list price; 0% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%) (as of Oct 2022).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 13% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $36k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,357 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $105 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. No clear direction: likely −9% to +7% over the next 12 months (49% chance of a rise).
