What this means
- Valuation. Prices are roughly in line with local incomes (−1% vs. this area's pre-2020 price-to-income norm).
- Prices. Home values are up 1.9% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), but still 3% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. Listings are 21% below the 2017-19 norm and falling (−25% vs. a year ago), still somewhat tight.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is high (68/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 7.4% below their final list price; 17% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 26% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $53k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $2,758 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Buy vs. rent. Owning and renting a typical home cost about the same per month.
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $141 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. Leaning up: likely −7% to +10% over the next 12 months (68% chance of a rise).
