The four markets
Altos splits each zip into four price-band segments. The bottom and top quartiles behave like different markets entirely — different buyers, different time-on-market, different absorption. Sparklines in the DOM column show the 14-week trajectory of days on market for each quartile.

“The market remains in a relative stasis in terms of sales to inventory. Prices have not been moving higher for several weeks. However, inventory is sufficiently low to keep us in the Seller’s Market zone so watch changes in the MAI. If the market heats up persistently, prices are likely to resume an upward climb.”

Zip codes are averages. Your street isn’t.
This data is a real signal — it’s why we publish it. But real estate stays stubbornly hyper-local: a school boundary, one busy road, a single new listing can move a block in ways the Vancouver median can’t catch.
