Market Action Index
61.3
Surged from 49.85 three months ago to 61.3 now — well above the 30-point seller threshold. Competition is intensifying fast; hesitation costs you.
Months of Inventory
1.06 mo
Down from 1.59 mo a year ago and 1.41 mo three months ago. At 1.06 months, supply is razor-thin — fewer choices and less negotiating power every week.
Median List Price
$948K
Up from $882K four months ago and $870K a year ago — a gain of +9% YoY. Prices are climbing steadily; every month you wait likely costs more.
Median Sale Price
$860K
Absorbed homes closed at $860K in Aug, up from $799K three months ago (+7.6% in 3mo) and $804K a year ago. Buyers are paying more to win deals.
What This Means

The window is narrowing — move before it closes.

With only 1.06 months of supply and a Market Action Index of 61.3, this is firmly a seller's market. Prices have risen ~9% year-over-year and sale prices are accelerating. Buyers who wait face higher prices, fewer options, and stiffer competition from other buyers.

Honest Caveats

About 36% of active listings have taken a price cut, and median days on market (35 days) haven't compressed dramatically. If your target home lingers, there may still be room to negotiate — but don't count on it becoming a pattern in this supply environment.
