What this means
- Prices. Home values are down 0.9% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), 17% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. There are 350% more homes for sale than the 2017-19 norm and rising (+29% vs. a year ago), so buyers have more to choose from than before the pandemic.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is high (89/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 14.3% below their final list price (as of Mar 2026); 22% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 19% 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 $2,552 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $174 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from tornadoes, hail and wind.
- Outlook. No clear direction: likely −8% to +8% over the next 12 months (60% chance of a rise).
