What this means
- Valuation. Prices are 18% above what local incomes have historically supported (this area's pre-2020 price-to-income ratio).
- Prices. Home values are down 1.9% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%), 21% below their 2022-23 peak.
- Supply. Listings are 2% below the 2017-19 norm and rising (+10% vs. a year ago), close to pre-pandemic levels.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is high (97/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 3.7% below their final list price; 25% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 41% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $145k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $2,523 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Buy vs. rent. Buying costs about $709/mo more than renting a typical home (mortgage payment vs. typical rent).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $456 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from wildfire. Check insurance costs before buying.
- Outlook. No clear direction: likely −8% to +9% over the next 12 months (61% chance of a rise).
