Inventory is increasing RAPIDLY. This may be due to the first time buyer's tax credit expiring. This is also good news as we could emerge from the extreme seller's market that we have been in for over a year to a stable market in about 8 months (with a consistent increases like the ones we have seen this month.)

In One Month: Listings are UP +1168 units, Contracted Listings DOWN -1120, Sales are UP +613 units. Close ratios are going lower because much of the pending inventory is short sales which requires LONGER close times.
