- Supply. Listings are 68% below the 2017-19 norm: still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is moderate (41/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 13.0% below their final list price; 0% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 15% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $35k 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 $133 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
