What this means
- Valuation. Prices are 50% below this area's pre-2020 price-to-income norm, cheaper relative to incomes than before the pandemic.
- Prices. Home values are down 38.9% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), 48% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. Listings are 57% below the 2017-19 norm: still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is moderate (38/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 3.2% below their final list price; 100% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 13% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $20k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,261 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $437 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 (56% 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: −8.5% to +7.8% (80% range; middle estimate +0.8%), chance of a rise 56%, of a 5%+ drop 19%.
