A real, disclosed source spread

Zillow's average home value ran $406,111 (up ~3.3% YoY); Redfin's median sale price ran $421,000 (up ~8.5% YoY); a separately-cited figure put the median notably higher, at $514,800 (May 2026) -- flagged as a real, disclosed outlier rather than reconciled.

A genuinely competitive market

Homes received an average of 5 offers and sold in around 39 days, with the typical home appreciating approximately 5.9% over the past 12 months -- a real, strong sellers' market.
