This growth, paired with a steady rise in inventory, suggests that buyer demand continues to outpace broader economic uncertainty.

  • Price Growth: Median house prices rose 1.3% year-over-year, while condos and co-ops saw a 2.3% increase.
  • Inventory Shifts: The supply of active listings grew by 3% from February, offering more choice to seasonal buyers.
  • Market Speed: The median time on market is now 41 days, reflecting a slightly more moderate pace than last year.
  • Cash Transactions: Affluent buyers remain a major force, with 27% of all March sales being all-cash transactions.
