Year-over-year buyer activity trend

What DPI Means

High DPI (70-100) = buyers are absorbing inventory faster than it lists. Sellers have leverage on price and terms. Mid (40-69) = balanced, both sides have signal. Low (0-39) = inventory stacking up, buyers control pace and price.

What CPS Means

High CPS (70-100) = your listing is strongly positioned vs. active competition (priced right, good $/sqft, fits the band). Mid (40-69) = competitive but not standout. Low (0-39) = priced or positioned in a way that loses to comparable active listings.

02 — Buyer Band Activity

Where buyers are actually competing

Each band is a sliding price window inside ±5% of your target. Overlap between bands captures buyers whose payment range crosses tier lines. Your target band is highlighted; the strike zone marks the band with the strongest absorption.

03 — Band Saturation

Is your price band already absorbed for this month?

Every price band has a historical monthly absorption rate. When current-month closings approach or exceed that baseline, the window for new listings narrows sharply.

04 — Who You're Really Competing With

New construction inventory in your price band

Builders don't compete on list price — they compete on incentives. Rate buydowns, closing credits, and free upgrades effectively undercut your list by 3-6% without ever appearing in MLS. Knowing how much of your band is builder inventory changes what "market price" actually means.

05 — Closed Comps Near Your Strike Zone

What homes like yours actually sold for

Closed sales within ±5% of your strike zone, ranked by similarity to your subject (sqft, beds, baths, year built). The comp set either validates the strike zone — or it doesn't, and that gap is its own signal.

These are real closed sales in your price band that took 90+ days OR required a 5%+ discount from original list to clear. Same band. Same market. Different pricing strategy.

07 — What Each Path Actually Nets You

Three pricing strategies. Three net-to-seller outcomes.

List price isn't the same as take-home. Longer days on market means carrying cost compounds against you. Here's what each path actually delivers — after expected DOM, expected discount, and carrying cost.

Income to Qualify

6.875%

Current Conv. Rate

How to read this: each bar shows the share of households in that income band who can still qualify for the payment on this listing at today’s rate. 90% or higher = rate impact is minor, buyer pool is wide. 40–70% = rate is filtering out roughly half of that income tier — expect slower showings and tighter offers. Below 25% = rate has effectively eliminated this income band from the pool. Watch the top two rows — those are the buyers actually shopping at this price.

For demonstration purposes only — rates vary by borrower qualification, credit profile, and loan program.
