Look at the median price, days on market and active inventory to gauge competition. Low days on market and homes selling near asking usually mean moving quickly with financing ready; more inventory can give you room to negotiate.
Recent sale prices and how fast homes are going help you price realistically. Strong sale-to-list ratios and low days on market point to firm demand; more inventory makes presentation and pricing matter more.
Consider the mix of single-family and multifamily stock, typical price points, and rental demand from local employers and colleges. Always run each property's numbers individually.
