What this means
- Valuation. Prices are 27% above what local incomes have historically supported (this area's pre-2020 price-to-income ratio).
- Prices. Home values are down 8.7% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), 15% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. There are 58% more homes for sale than the 2017-19 norm and rising (+38% vs. a year ago), so buyers have more to choose from than before the pandemic.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is high (99/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 7.9% below their final list price; 19% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 30% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $40k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,892 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Buy vs. rent. Buying costs about $486/mo less than renting a typical home (mortgage payment vs. typical rent).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $162 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from hurricanes.
- Outlook. No clear direction: likely −9% to +7% over the next 12 months (51% chance of a rise).
