📊 Key Stats:

  • Median Home Price: $400,000 ▼ 1.2% YoY

  • Closed Sales: 8,130 ▼ 4.7% YoY

🧭 What This Means:

👉 For Buyers:
Inventory is way up — nearly 40% more homes on the market than this time last year. That means more choices and possibly more leverage when negotiating. Prices are softening, so you might find the right home at a better deal than you would’ve a year ago.

👉 For Sellers:
Buyers have options, so strategic pricing is key. With homes taking longer to sell, it’s essential to present your home in its best light — and be ready to stand out from the competition.

🧱 Market Insight:

Homes are selling at 95.7% of their original list price. Translation? Overpricing could cost you in both time and money.

Final Thoughts:
This isn’t the overheated market of the past few years, but that’s not a bad thing. A balanced market helps both sides make smarter, more confident decisions.
