Montgomery County MD Trends - Listings vs Sales Analysis
The story seems to be same: inventory is up and sales are down! This is a good visual that shows just how wide the margin is. I am trying to get the historical data for listings in Montgomery County out of our MLS system so I can show the difference between the seller's market years and today. You can already see the convergence at the 2005 end where there was far less disparity between what was available vs what was selling. The numbers this chart represents are:
2007 Listings = 64,744
2006 Listings = 52,605
Up 23%
2007 Sales = 9924
2006 Sales - 12,233
Down 19%
