Analysis
In summary, the seller's market is best characterized as directionally weakening. The anticipated marketing time of 30–60 days reflects current absorption rates. The positive 6-month $/SF trend (+2.5%), paired with a negative 12-month linear $/SF change (-5.0%), indicates that recent activity has firmed values from a softer earlier period. Inventory is tight at 2.5 months, sales volume has rebounded meaningfully on a quarterly basis, and the SP/LP ratio of 100.0% indicates buyers and sellers are routinely meeting at the list price.
