Start with the typical home: $490,399. Put 20% down and borrow $392,319 at 7.40%, the 30-year fixed average as of October 8, 2026.

That is $2,716 a month in principal and interest.

The median household here earns $106,511 a year, $8,876 a month. So the payment takes 30.6% of income — rated “stretched” (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 10.0% in 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 $316,625. So the real change is +55%, not +206%.

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 121 a month (Redfin, 3-month rolling data through August 2026). That is 93% of the 2015–2019 level for the same months.

On the shelf — homes for sale at the end of the period: 304. That is 70% of the 2015–2019 level for the same months.

Going out — closed sales: about 129 a month. That is 96% of the 2015–2019 level for the same months.

The ladder: homes for sale ÷ monthly sales = 2.4 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 8 more homes sold than came on each month, so inventory is shrinking. The basin is draining.
