Jon's Current Read

Price here is driven by condition and the wide age spread more than any single benchmark. With a building stock that runs from 1900 all the way to 2024 and a median build year of 1985, two homes at the same address on paper can trade very differently once you account for updates, systems, and land. The median sits at $185,000, but treat that as a midpoint in a broad range, not a sticker price — what a given house fetches depends on how much work it needs.

The current posture is patient. At a median 75 days on market, this is not a place where listings move in a weekend, and buyers generally have room to inspect, negotiate, and walk if the numbers do not work. Year-over-year values are up 7.6%, and the heat score of 56 reads as balanced-to-mildly-competitive rather than frantic. Sellers who price to condition tend to do fine; those who price to hope tend to sit.

🟡 Still climbing. The trailing-12-month median ($185K) is up 7.6% from the prior 12 months ($172K). With about 6 sales a year, a single closing can swing this number, so read the level and the decade, not one year's move.Momentum Research, record-level realMLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending July 15. Confidence: Medium (7 and 11 sales in the two windows).

Reading a market with a hundred-year age spread

The defining feature of this community is variety. A median living area around 1,461 square feet and a median price-per-foot near $135 give you a rough yardstick, but the year-built range from 1900 to 2024 means condition is the real variable. You could be looking at an original older structure, a recent build, or anything in between — and each carries a different repair, insurance, and financing profile. Bring a thorough inspection and price the home in front of you, not the median.

Owner-occupancy tells its own story. Just over half the homes — 52.5% — carry a homestead exemption, which points to a mix of long-term owners alongside investment and part-time holdings. Combined with a 75-day median time on market and only a handful of recent closings in the window, that means comparable sales can be thin and each transaction carries weight. Expect to lean on qualitative judgment as much as raw comps.

Why work with Momentum here

In a market this condition-driven and this thin on recent closings, generic pricing advice fails. We underwrite each home on its own merits — age, systems, land, and insurability — and we know how to interpret a 75-day pace so you neither overpay in a rush nor let the right house slip while you wait. Whether you are buying or selling, we will tell you plainly when a given property is worth its ask and when it is not.
