1-Minute takeaway

New inventory outpaced closings this week. Buyers are active, but selective.

What happened

New inventory outpaced closings this week.

Week ending Jun 27, 2025.

12 new listings arrived while 1 sale closed. When options increase, urgency usually drops and sellers get pushed toward clearer price discovery.

Sales that explain the market

Buyers are showing up - they’re just choosing carefully.

  • 13 Sunset Lane - $1,815,000 (listed $1,895,000) - 17 DOM

The outcomes stayed mixed - the winners tend to be the listings that feel straightforward from day one. This week’s sold mix: 0 over ask, 1 under ask.

The Board

Price discovery is happening in public.

  • No clear price-cut signals detected this week - add 1–2 notes manually if needed.

This section is the tape read - the movements that explain where buyers and sellers are adjusting.

New listings worth noting

More choice is slowing buyer urgency.

Even a small increase in new inventory gives buyers more direct comparisons - and that usually makes them slower to stretch.

Market example

106 Sparling Road - $1,499,995

Worth watching early - clean listings tend to show their hand quickly once tours start.

Also new this week

  • 302 2nd Avenue - $1,150,000
  • 157 Ridgemont Crescent - $925,000
  • 1202 6TH Avenue - $899,000
  • 1291 4th Avenue - $825,000
  • 702 9th Avenue - $699,000

Next week I’m watching

Whether the clean listings get picked off early. If the clean listings move early, demand is still there under the surface. If they sit, pricing will do more of the work.

My take

Buyers will wait, then move fast when it fits.

More listings doesn’t automatically mean more sales. It means buyers can compare harder - and the homes that feel low-friction usually move first.
