What It Means

Who has leverage right now

BUYER'S SELLER'S 51
Momentum Score
Buyer leverage49
Seller leverage51

Leverage scores are derived from the Momentum Score (supply, demand, speed, pricing power, and trend). Right now the data favors neither side decisively.

Momentum Outlook
  • Prices — heavy supply keeps the pressure on sellers; softening is the path of least resistance.
  • Inventory — building over the tracked window; watch whether that holds through the season.
  • Mortgage sensitivity — at 11.0× income, this market is highly sensitive to rate moves; rate relief tends to show up in demand here quickly.
