A total of 2,952 homes were sold during the month, marking a 7% year-over-year (YoY) decrease.

Inventory remained elevated, providing buyers with a wider range of choices. Months of inventory stood at 6.1, slightly above balanced market conditions. Active listings increased 15% YoY to 17,043, while new listings ticked up 3% to 4,609. Pending sales fell 17% to 2,459, reflecting a more cautious pace among buyers.
