📈 New supply is rising, with total new listings up +9.4% YoY, while the sales-to-new listings ratio declined -3%, showing softer demand relative to supply.

⏳ The pace of sales slowed: days on market rose +11.4% for properties and +13.8% for listings YoY, indicating buyers are taking longer to make decisions.
