A useful market view combines supply, demand, affordability, local economic strength and the risks that may affect ownership or resale.

Inventory & demand
Track active listings, new supply, pending sales, cancellations, time on market and the balance between buyers and sellers. Compare several months rather than treating one busy weekend as a trend, and separate different price ranges and property types.
Price & affordability
Compare median price and price-per-square-foot trends with local incomes, mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, utilities and HOA dues. A price can soften while the monthly cost rises, so affordability deserves its own analysis.
Economic foundations
Study employment, population, household formation, construction, infrastructure and the diversity of local demand. Look for several durable sources of activity instead of relying on one employer, one development or a temporary wave of migration.
Risk before reward
Account for climate exposure, insurance availability, regulation, property condition, liquidity and resale depth. Model a slower sale, a larger repair and a higher carrying cost before concluding that an opportunity is resilient.
