As of August 2026: $334,695, +3.7% over twelve months.

That is $1,854 a month in principal and interest.

The median household here earns $97,876 a year, $8,156 a month. So the payment takes 22.7% 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 9.8% in 2000.

Take the typical home's price each month, borrow 80% at that month's actual 30-year average rate: in January 2000 (8.21%) the payment was $867.

In December 2020, with rates at 2.68%, it was $781.

By August 2026, at 6.67%, it was $1,722 — +121% since December 2020, while the home's value moved +39%.

Reported values rose +131% since January 2000.

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

Divide one by the other: in August 2026 dollars, the 2000 home was worth $285,936. So the real change is +17%, not +131%.

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 55 a month (Redfin, 3-month rolling data through August 2026). That is 55% of the 2015–2019 level for the same months.

On the shelf — homes for sale at the end of the period: 109. That is 52% of the 2015–2019 level for the same months.

Going out — closed sales: about 51 a month. That is 56% of the 2015–2019 level for the same months.

The ladder: homes for sale ÷ monthly sales = 2.1 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 4 more homes came on than sold each month, so inventory is growing. The basin is filling.
