Median List Price
$416K
Down from $455K a year ago (Sep '25), a -8.6% YoY dip. Up just +1.5% in 3mo — prices stabilizing near a floor, not falling further.
Market Action Index
48.83
Seller's market territory (>30). Up from 35.78 in Jan '26 and 36.99 a year ago — buyer urgency is building fast; act before competition peaks.
Months of Inventory
1.41 mo
Only 1.41 months of supply — deeply undersupplied. Down from 2.39 in Jan '26 and tighter than the 2.25 seen a year ago. Scarce homes favor early movers.
Absorbed Sale Price
$437K
What buyers actually paid rose to $437K in Aug '26, up +19.7% from $365K three months ago — executed deals are firming fast, so waiting costs real money.
What This Means

A Dip in Asking Prices Won't Last Long

List prices are ~8.6% below their Sep '25 peak, but absorption prices are surging and inventory is razor-thin at 1.4 months. The Market Action Index is climbing toward 50 — every month you wait, competition tightens and your negotiating window narrows.

Honest Caveats

Days on market have crept up to 42 (median) and the mean sits at 106 days, suggesting some homes are sitting. Nearly 46% of listings have taken a price cut, so selective buyers can negotiate — but the tightest, best-priced homes are still moving quickly.
