What this means
- Supply. There are 0% more homes for sale than the 2017-19 norm, so buyers have more to choose from than before the pandemic.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is low (13/100; U.S.: 54) (as of Nov 2019): homes typically sell at or above asking (100.0% of list) (as of Jan 2017); 0% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%) (as of Sep 2025).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $112 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
