Sales Price / List Price Ratio
The sales price/list price ratio is the average sale price divided by the average list price for sold properties expressed as a percentage. If it is above 100%, homes are selling for more than the list price. If it is less than 100%, homes are selling for less than the list price. The September 2026 sales price/list price ratio was 94.39%, down from 100.95% from the previous month and down from 105.47% from September 2025.

Absorption rate monthly values weren’t labeled in the source chart — only the comparison points below are confirmed.
Average Days on Market
The average days on market (DOM) is the number of days a property is on the market before it sells. An upward trend in DOM tends to indicate a move towards a buyer’s market, a downward trend tends to indicate a move towards seller’s market. The DOM for September 2026 was 72 days, up 63.64% from 44 days from the previous month and 132.26% higher than 31 days from September 2025. The September 2026 DOM was at its highest level compared with September 2025 and 2024.
Note: the February 2026 bar label in the source chart is cut off and can’t be confirmed, so the chart below shows only the confirmed comparison points from the report (YTD average, Jun.–Aug., August, September, September 2025).
Average Sales Price per Square Foot
The average sales price per square foot is a more normalized indicator for the direction of property value. The sales price per square foot in September 2026 was $329, up 21.85% from $270 from the previous month and 1.54% higher than $324 from September 2025.
