What this means
- Valuation. Prices are 16% above what local incomes have historically supported (this area's pre-2020 price-to-income ratio).
- Prices. Home values are down 3.5% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%).
- Supply. Listings are 46% below the 2017-19 norm and falling (−13% vs. a year ago): still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is moderate (61/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 7.5% below their final list price; 40% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 21% 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 $1,766 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $202 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. No clear direction: likely −8% to +9% over the next 12 months (62% chance of a rise).
Next 12 months
No clear direction
A rise is somewhat more likely than a fall, but not by enough to call. Likely change: −7.5% to +8.8% (80% range; middle estimate +1.7%), chance of a rise 62%, of a 5%+ drop 16%.
