Market snapshot
Recent closed-sale data points to higher prices than last year. With a $160K median sale price in January and 31 homes sold, the market is still moving—and pricing strategy continues to matter. Homes also sold a bit faster, with a 37-day median time to go pending, which is 10 days quicker than a year ago. For buyers, that can mean fewer “long-sitting” opportunities and more competition for properties that show well. For sellers, it suggests that move-in-ready condition and clean pricing can still be rewarded, even when shoppers are watching monthly payments closely.
On the financing side, the weekly average for a 30-year fixed mortgage dipped to 6.01% (week ending Feb. 19). While that level is still meaningfully higher than the ultra-low period of prior years, even small shifts can affect affordability and buyer activity, especially heading into the spring season.
Inventory & rentals
One major listing portal shows about 140 homes for sale, which may give buyers a workable set of options across different price points and home conditions. On the rental side, the same portal indicates a median rent around $1,400. Renters may still need to move quickly on well-kept units, while buyers comparing rent vs. buy may focus on total monthly cost and home readiness rather than list price alone.
Development & permits watch
For projects that require zoning relief or map changes, the city’s Planning & Zoning Commission meets on the second Tuesday each month. That schedule can be worth monitoring if a nearby parcel is proposed for redevelopment, a use change, or a higher-intensity build that could impact traffic, parking, or neighborhood character.
