Key Market Metrics:

Months supply of inventory: 2.13 

While this is still considered a low inventory level, it's an improvement from previous months and indicates that more homes are becoming available.

12-Month change in inventory: +54.35% 

A significant increase in inventory over the past year shows a trend toward market stabilization, giving buyers more choices while keeping seller confidence high.

Median days on market: 12 

Homes continue to sell quickly, a strong indicator of buyer urgency.

Sold to list price percentage: 107.7% 

Sellers are seeing their homes go for well above asking price, with many receiving multiple offers.

Median sold price: $1,203,500 

This price point signals a healthy, high-demand market where buyers are investing in higher-value homes.

What This Means for Sellers 

With low inventory and homes selling above asking price, it’s still a great time to list your home. Strategic pricing and expert marketing can lead to strong, swift offers.

What This Means for Buyers 

The increase in listings is good news, but you’ll need to act quickly in this fast-moving market. Working with a skilled real estate team is essential to stay competitive.
