The quarter in three numbers
- Median sale price: $800,000 — the quarter's central tendency; individual segments (condos, view/premium product) trade around it.
- Days on market: ~87 — well-priced, well-presented homes moved faster; over-priced listings supplied most of the tail.
- Year over year: +6.0% — direction matters more than magnitude at quarterly scale.
What it means for buyers and sellers
Sellers: at ~87 days average, pricing to the data on day one beats chasing the market down — the listings that linger here are mispriced, not unloved. Buyers: +6.0% year-over-year movement means neither panic nor unlimited leverage; negotiate from condition and carrying-cost facts (insurance, HOA, special taxes) rather than headlines.
