Median sale prices softened this month while inventory compressed. Days on market lengthened, signaling slower buyer activity. Rental pricing increased, while total rental inventory tightened.
Market data is only valuable if you act on it. With pricing stabilizing and days on market shifting, this is the type of environment where disciplined investors find their edge.
