What this means
- Valuation. Prices are 46% below this area's pre-2020 price-to-income norm, cheaper relative to incomes than before the pandemic.
- Prices. Home values are down 27.6% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), 41% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. Listings are 20% below the 2017-19 norm, still somewhat tight.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is low (19/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 9.4% below their final list price; 0% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 24% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $22k 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 $326 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. Leaning up: likely −6% to +10% over the next 12 months (71% chance of a rise).
