Inventory is up and Market Action is trending down recently. While days-on-market appears to be trending lower, the overall conditions are weakening a bit.
The market has been cooling over time and prices plateaued for a while. Despite the consistent decrease in MAI, we're in the Seller's zone. Watch for changes in MAI. If the MAI resumes it's climb, prices will likely follow suit. If the MAI drops consistently or falls into the Buyer's zone, watch for downward pressure on prices.
Median Price: Prices in this zip code seem to be pulling gently back from its high-point. This week prices remained basically flat. We're still near the high point of the market so we'll keep an eye on the Market Action Index to anticipate any more significant down shifts in pricing.
