What It Means

Who has leverage right now

BUYER'S SELLER'S 66
Momentum Score
Buyer leverage34
Seller leverage66

Leverage scores are derived from the Momentum Score (supply, demand, speed, pricing power, and trend). Right now the data favors sellers.

Momentum Outlook
  • Prices — pressure remains upward while supply stays this thin.
  • Inventory — tightening over the tracked window; watch whether that holds through the season.
  • Negotiating power — sellers hold the leverage while 34% of inventory sits under contract.
  • Mortgage sensitivity — at 5.8× income, this market is highly sensitive to rate moves; rate relief tends to show up in demand here quickly.
