Here is the Real Estate Market Activity for January - June 2008. Check back each month to see the monthly 2008 trend for Bremerton WA.
There are currently 691 homes for sale with 5 of those homes listed as a contingent sale and 43 of those listed as Pending Inspection (new NWMLS term STI was replaced) which means there is a contract that has been presented and excepted by the seller with the condition of the home inspection. Once the home inspection has taken place these 44 homes will either go back on the market or be listed as pending and will not show in the active section of the Northwest Multiple Listing Service. (NWMLS)

The Absorption rate in the Bremerton area is 54.45 weeks or approximately 12.70 months of inventory if the current conditions remain unchanged. That figure sure looks bad. However, if you look at the pendings for June which will close in July - July's figure should really improve the months of inventory.
An absorption rate is the mathematical relationship of supply and demand. The absorption rate is the number of months it would take to sell the entire inventory of homes in the Bremerton area of Kitsap County if the pace were to stay constant.
My definition breaks down like this...
Normal Market - Between 5 and 6 months of inventory.
Seller's Market - Between 1 and 4 months of inventory.
Buyer's Market - 7 months and higher.

Jo, the solds seem steady even if the inventory is high. Maybe you have bottomed out. The next three months or so will tell. Great details in all areas that you provided.
