If you were to prioritize the following list from most important to least in any given time period: • Mortgage rates • Count of Properties for Sale • Average Property Sale Price • Average Property List Price • Average Sale to List Price Ratio • % of Sales Over/Under List • Days to Close (DOM) • Count of Properties Sold • Count of Properties with a Price Cut As a second question. Do you track these on the daily, weekly, monthly, or annual timeline? Also if I am missing anything please add it in as a new metric!

homes.com provide median income for that purpose.Also don't underestimate the power of perplexity.ai , this guy knows almost everything.

Census.gov will give you (for any city/state) the population, median home value, median household income, median age, racial distribution and more.

Chris, The importance of each metric can shift based on your specific goals (buying, selling, investing), market phase, and economic conditions.

homes.com could provide income for the area that you are looking for. For me it's not that big a deal because that's secondary metric in my opinion.

I only care about DOM. I tracked monthly. Number of inventory is also something that I monitor.

Interesting! Where do you track that?

@Chris F. I like to track job with/losses and median income for that area as well.
