Significance of the Current Inventory and Absorption Rate.The sold units from February 28, 2020 to March 1, 2020 converted into an absorption rate give us an approximate length or period of time when the current inventory of 14 units would be depleted. Seventy Two (71) single family homes were sold within a period of one year.

 

Given the absorption rate of 5 units sold in a month, the Town of Bolton, currently, has 2 to 3 months of supply of homes for sale in the market. This is not a lot of properties on the market and with this inventory, unless demand is curtailed, home prices might increase tremendously.

 

Absorption Rate: “The rate at which available homes are sold in a specific real estate market during a given time period.” Click on the link for a better explanation of Absorption Rate.

 

Understanding Mean(numerical Average) and  Median: 

“The median takes into consideration the middle value of the set of data.  However the mean/average takes into consideration all of the values.  Therefore high or low values will effect the mean/average.  If the mean/average is a lot higher than the median, there is an unusually high value that pulls the average price up.  If the mean is a lot lower than the median, there is an unusually low value that pulls the average price down.

 

In most cases, the reason the median price is used rather than the mean is mainly because it is a more accurate indicator of the market.

Maria, hopefully when this disease is finally out of the US, business will again return to normal.  Until then, we have to do what we can, and be happy.  Stay safe my friend!
