One week ago we looked at general trends in the Henderson Nevada real estate market. Today we'll explore the components of that market -- REOs (bank owned homes), short sales, and regular sales.

Oveall we have about 3.1 months of Henderson real estate inventory. Taking a closer look reveals three distinct markets. Here are the October figures for Henderson REOs, Henderson short sales, and 'regular' Henderson home sales.

Absorption is the number of months it would take to sell the available inventory at current sales rates. (Available Inventory/August Sales = Absorption Rate). We have about three weeks of REO inventory, and over eight months of short sales.

Distressed properties (REOs and short sales) make up just over half (53%) of our available inventory ...

 ... but account for 87% of the current escrows.
