What this means
- Valuation. Prices are 19% above what local incomes have historically supported (this area's pre-2020 price-to-income ratio).
- Prices. Home values are up 1.4% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%).
- Supply. Listings are 76% below the 2017-19 norm and falling (−73% vs. a year ago): still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is low (1/100; U.S.: 54): homes typically sell at or above asking (100.2% of list); 0% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 31% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $92k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $2,139 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $539 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from hurricanes. Check insurance costs before buying.
- Outlook. Leaning up: likely −5% to +11% over the next 12 months (74% chance of a rise).
