Good morning John. I have to wonder how these numbers will change when reconstruction of the devastated areas of California get into full swing. As an aside will it effect others areas of the country? Enjoy your day.

With all of the money that is constantly spent on new construction, I don't see how we ever have low inventory, haha.
