What this means
- Valuation. Prices are roughly in line with local incomes (+3% vs. this area's pre-2020 price-to-income norm).
- Prices. Home values are up 2.6% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%).
- Supply. Listings are 8% below the 2017-19 norm and falling (−52% vs. a year ago), close to pre-pandemic levels.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is moderate (36/100; U.S.: 54): homes sell for about 1.4% below their final list price; 9% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 67% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $330k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $2,270 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $322 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from earthquakes. Earthquakes aren't covered by standard homeowners insurance.
- Outlook. Leaning up: likely −5% to +11% over the next 12 months (74% chance of a rise).
