What this means
- Prices. Home values are up 4.9% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%).
- Supply. Listings are 33% below the 2017-19 norm: still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is low (7/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 3.3% below their final list price; 0% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 37% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $72k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,514 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $155 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. Leaning up: likely −4% to +12% over the next 12 months (79% chance of a rise).
