What this means
- Prices. Home values are up 1.1% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), but still 22% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. There are 50% more homes for sale than the 2017-19 norm and falling (−25% vs. a year ago), so buyers have more to choose from than before the pandemic.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is high (86/100; U.S.: 54): homes typically sell at or above asking (100.0% of list) (as of Jul 2025); 0% 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 $46k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,696 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $156 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. No clear direction: likely −8% to +8% over the next 12 months (59% chance of a rise).
Next 12 months
No clear direction
A rise is somewhat more likely than a fall, but not by enough to call. Likely change: −8.0% to +8.3% (80% range; middle estimate +1.2%), chance of a rise 59%, of a 5%+ drop 17%.
