Inventory is up and Market Action is trending down recently. While days-on-market appears to be trending lower, the overall conditions are weakening a bit.
Home sales have been exceeding new inventory for several weeks. However prices have not yet stopped falling. Since the market is already in the Seller's zone, expect prices to level off very soon. Should the sales trend continue expect that prices could climb from there.
Median Price: This week prices bumped up a bit but the trend of recent weeks is generally downward. A pickup in demand will be reflected in the Market Action Index, so watch that chart to try to identify a change in the market.
