This week's signals

Strength 4 / 5

83 days

De Pere homes taking 83 days to sell — +69.4% vs. a year ago

Homes are sitting materially longer than they were this time last year — the first hard sign of softening demand or over-priced inventory.

Strength 4 / 5

101.7%

Sun Prairie sale-to-list broke above 1.0 — 101.7%

Typical closed deal is now clearing at or over list price; sellers have regained pricing leverage in the last month.

Strength 4 / 5

$495K

Brookfield avg sale price fell back under $500K — now $495K

Dropping back below $500K re-opens a buyer pool that had been priced out — and puts sellers on notice that the last few months' comps are no longer defensible.

Strength 4 / 5

103.9%

Brookfield sale-to-list broke above 1.0 — 103.9%

Typical closed deal is now clearing at or over list price; sellers have regained pricing leverage in the last month.

Strength 4 / 5

101.1%

Greenfield sale-to-list broke above 1.0 — 101.1%

Typical closed deal is now clearing at or over list price; sellers have regained pricing leverage in the last month.

Strength 4 / 5

$165K

Milwaukee median price -5.2% YoY

Price-per-sqft also -7.1% YoY, confirming real depreciation vs. mix-shift noise.
