What this means
- Valuation. Prices are 92% above what local incomes have historically supported (this area's pre-2020 price-to-income ratio).
- Prices. Home values are up 3.8% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), but still 15% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. Listings are 7% below the 2017-19 norm and rising (+18% vs. a year ago), close to pre-pandemic levels.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is high (98/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 13.3% below their final list price; 14% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 63% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $124k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,514 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $361 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from flooding. Flood isn't covered by standard homeowners insurance.
- Outlook. Leaning up: likely −6% to +10% over the next 12 months (69% chance of a rise).
