Leverage is not a mood. It shows up as specific, checkable conditions: how long comparable homes are sitting, how many are competing with each other in one price band, how often prices are being reduced, and how motivated a particular seller is by their own timeline.
These reports look at where those conditions hold and where they do not, one segment at a time, because leverage in one price band or one neighborhood rarely describes the next one over.
