What this means
- Valuation. Prices are 59% above what local incomes have historically supported (this area's pre-2020 price-to-income ratio).
- Prices. Home values are up 3.0% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), but still 4% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. There are 332% more homes for sale than the 2017-19 norm and rising (+20% vs. a year ago), so buyers have more to choose from than before the pandemic.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is high (99/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 6.1% below their final list price; 24% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 50% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $100k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $2,269 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $116 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. No clear direction: likely −8% to +8% over the next 12 months (58% chance of a rise).
Next 12 months
