Here is the clearest way I would read the current numbers.
Sellers in Portsmouth, RI should pay close attention to how close recent sales are landing to asking. Last month, offers came in at 97.9% of list price and supply was 2.76 months, so I would stay grounded and avoid pushing the price just to test the room.
Recent offers landed at 97.9% of asking last month, while supply sat at 2.76 months. In Portsmouth, RI, that is a useful signal that buyers are active, but they are still paying attention to value. For sellers, I would keep your pricing close to the market instead of asking the market to meet you halfway. For buyers, I would use that same number to remember that negotiations still need a strong reason. Keep your price tied to the market. Watch the first response closely. Adjust early if the feedback is soft.
