The Quarterly Median Price returned to 2021 levels after a jump during the first half of the year. 

Monthly Median Prices are fairly consistent with 2021. Jumps in prices typically occur during the Mar-May high-season with buyers looking to move in time for the new school year. 

Monthly Average Days on Market remain at historic lows. 

The Monthly Average Sales vs. List Price increased in Q2. Reflects fewer competing offers bidding up the price.
