Top Signals

Four Data Points
Months of Inventory
2.27 mo
At 2.27 months, supply is well below the 4-month seller threshold and has held under 2.4 for 6+ consecutive months. Down from 2.56 a year ago, demand is structurally outstripping supply — giving you real pricing power at the negotiating table.
Median Sale Price
$600K
Median list price hit $600K in Jun 2026, up +$33K (+5.8%) in just 3 months from $567K in Mar, and holding flat from May — a sign of a price plateau at a strong level. Buyers are still absorbing at $530K, confirming real transaction strength.
Days on Market
49 days
Median days on market dropped to 49 in Jun 2026, down sharply from 70 days in Apr and 84 days in Jan — a 42% improvement in just 5 months. Homes are moving decisively faster, meaning the right listing priced correctly sells quickly right now.
Market Action Index
37.24
The Market Action Index sits at 37.24 in Jun 2026, above the 30-point seller threshold, and up from 34.8 a year ago (+2.4 pts YoY). It has stayed above 36 for 9 straight months, confirming sustained seller-market conditions with consistent buyer urgency.
What This Means

The Window Is Open — List While Buyers Are Competing

With under 2.3 months of supply, 49-day median sell times, and a Market Action Index above 37, sellers hold the cards. Listings priced well are moving fast. This is your moment to capture top dollar before conditions shift.

Honest Caveats

Price-cut rates remain elevated: 39% of single-family listings took a reduction in Jun 2026, roughly flat vs. a year ago. Overpriced homes still sit — precise pricing at or just below $600K is essential to avoid joining that group.
