At the rate of sales last month, it would take 17 months to deplete the current Amador County Real Estate inventory. This is often looked at to decide basic market trends. The National Association of Realtors sometimes define a market with over six months of inventory as a “buyers market”. Up here in the foothills inventory is often somewhat slower to move. Nonetheless, with almost a year and a half of inventory, buyers that are ready, willing, and able, should have their pick.
Amador County Real Estate awaits you.
