While this week the median didn't fluctuate much, we are relatively close to themarket's price high-point. A persistent drop of the Market Action Index into theBuyer's zone will be a leading indicator of the price strength subsiding.
Median Price
Prices have settled at a price plateau across the board. Prices in all four quartiles are
basically mixed. Look for a persistent shift (up or down) in the Market Action Indexbefore prices move from these current levels.
The Redwood City market is currently quite strongly in the Seller's Advantage zone (greater than30). The 90-day Market Action Index stands at 64.47; indicating very little supply relative to thedemand.
Market Action Index
Not surprisingly, all segments in the market are showing high levels of demand. Watch thequartiles for changes before the whole market changes. Often one end of the market (e.g. the high-end) will weaken before the rest of the market and signal a slowdown for the whole group.
Market Action Index per Quartile
Residential house prices are a function of supply and demand, and market conditions can be characterizedby analyzing those factors. Watch this index for sustained changes: if the index falls into the Buyer’s
Advantage zone (below 30) for a long period, prices are likely in for a downward correction.
