Monthly cost vs. price
Start with the typical home: $234,500. This calculation prices the home with Lotvox's affordability series as of August 2026, so it differs from the latest monthly value above ($466,449). Put 20% down and borrow $187,600 at 7.40%, the 30-year fixed average as of October 8, 2026.
That is $1,299 a month in principal and interest.
The median household here earns $134,924 a year, $11,244 a month. So the payment takes 11.6% of income — rated “affordable” (Lotvox ZIP bands: under 28% affordable · 28–36% stretched · 36%+ severe).
The line holds today's rate fixed and moves only the price: at that rate, the same share was 11.3% in 2000.

General prices (CPI-U) rose +97% over the same span.

Listings Flow Ladder
Picture the Listings Flow Ladder as a basin: new listings pour in from the faucet, the homes for sale are the water, and closed sales run out the drain. Coming in — new listings: about 39 a month (Redfin, 3-month rolling data through August 2026). That is 92% of the 2015–2019 level for the same months.
On the shelf — homes for sale at the end of the period: 79.
Going out — closed sales: about 27 a month. That is 60% of the 2015–2019 level for the same months.
The ladder: homes for sale ÷ monthly sales = 2.9 months of supply — below the 4–6 month range Lotvox treats as balanced. In the basin, that is the water level against the shaded balanced band.
The net reading: about 12 more homes came on than sold each month, so inventory is growing. The basin is filling.
