What this means
- Valuation. Prices are roughly in line with local incomes (−5% vs. this area's pre-2020 price-to-income norm).
- Prices. Home values are up 4.9% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%).
- Supply. Listings are 29% below the 2017-19 norm and rising (+26% vs. a year ago): still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is moderate (63/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 26.2% below their final list price (as of Jul 2025); 4% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 23% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $40k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,922 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $168 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding.
- Outlook. No clear direction: likely −9% to +7% over the next 12 months (52% 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: −9.1% to +7.2% (80% range; middle estimate +0.2%), chance of a rise 52%, of a 5%+ drop 21%.
