Analysis: • Both “Months of Inventory” and “Average Days on Market” are good indicators of the supply of homes that are available for sale within a region. • Typically, six months of inventory is consistent with a balanced housing market with modest price appreciation. Currently numbers show around 4 months of inventory for the area suggesting a sellers’ market. • “Average Days on Market” is another indicator of supply. The lower the number, the tighter the supply.
