What this means
- Valuation. Prices are 15% below this area's pre-2020 price-to-income norm, cheaper relative to incomes than before the pandemic.
- Prices. Home values are down 3.1% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), 5% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. Listings are 44% below the 2017-19 norm and rising (+27% vs. a year ago): still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is high (68/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 3.9% below their final list price; 26% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 22% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $39k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $996 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $65 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. No clear direction: likely −9% to +7% over the next 12 months (48% chance of a rise).
Next 12 months
No clear direction
A fall is somewhat more likely than a rise, but not by enough to call. Likely change: −9.5% to +6.8% (80% range; middle estimate −0.2%), chance of a rise 48%, of a 5%+ drop 22%.
