Prices have been close to flat over the past three months (+0.10% per month on average), and the market is up 3.5% from a year ago.
The 30-year mortgage rate sits near 6.5% (elevated for affordability); for-sale inventory is about even with a year ago (+9%); national unemployment is 4.2%. These conditions feed into this metro's forecast, since the macro-augmented model beat the price-only model in backtesting here.
