What does this mean if you are a buyer?
For buyers, an inventory of 2.50 months (compared to 1.82 months in December) shows that we may be finally moving closer to a balanced market. Currently, sellers continue to have the advantage since there are fewer homes available. Anything under 3 months of inventory is considered a seller’s market. So those homes that are priced right may get multiple offers. The buyer has to remain diligent about their offers. If you are serious about an offer, have your agent provide you with comparable properties to determine the best price for the house. We need to continue to watch the trend as the year progresses. Many forecasts show that we will be in a balanced market within the next few months.
