Market Action Index
This answers “How’s the Market?” by comparing rate of sales versus inventory.
While the Market Action Index shows some strengthening in the last few weeks, prices have not seemed to move from their plateau. Should the upward trend in sales relative to inventory continue, expect prices to resume an upward climb in tandem with the MAI.
Median List Price
Again this week we see prices in this zip code remain roughly at the level they’ve been for several weeks. Since we’re significantly below the top of the market, look for a persistent up-shift in the Market Action Index before we see prices move from these levels.
Price Per Square Foot
While prices have been basically flat, the price per square foot has been heading downward. While not a sign of broad strength in a market, larger homes are coming more available and buyers are tending to get more home for their money.
Inventory
Inventory has been climbing lately. Note that rising inventory alone does not signal a weakening market. Look to the Market Action Index and Days on Market trends to gauge whether buyer interest is keeping up with available supply.
Median Days on Market (DOM)
The properties have been on the market for an average of 102 days. Half of the listings have come newly on the market in the past 56 or so days. Watch the 90-day DOM trend for signals of a changing market.
