2. Price Movements: Both average list and sale prices have seen a significant decrease from the previous year, with list prices dropping by 25.20% and sale prices by 23.03%. This could indicate a potential buyer's market where prices are adjusting to attract more activity.

This trend suggests that while immediate market conditions may show volatility, the overall yearly data points to a continuing interest in purchasing property.
5: Market Forecasts: Going forward, predictions indicate that the market may stabilize due to these adjustments in pricing and inventory. Economists suggest that as prices align more closely with buyer expectations, and with potential economic stimuli from governmental policies, the market could see a resurgence in buyer interest and investment.
