Purpose:
The primary function of this report is to give an impression of Supply and Demand
SUPPLY is defined herein as the number of Active Listings at the Beginning of a month, plus the number of New Listings generated during the month. This sum totals the Total for Sale during the month. Effectively these are the 'willing' sellers.
DEMAND is defined as the number of Contracts Written plus the number of Closings. Subtract that sum plus any Expired, Canceled or Withdrawn listings from the Total for Sale to produce the Active Listings at the End of Current Month which is effectively the Active at Beginning Of (the next) Month.
Results / Status / Summary for August 2017 compared to August 2016
- Active at Beginning Of Month: (26%) - down 26%
- New Listing: (8%) - down 8%
- Contracts Written: 4% - up 4%
- Closings: (24%) - down 24%
- Active at End Of Month: (24%) - down 24% as compared to the end of August 2016
This is an improvement of 5% in the market from June of 2017, our last report, when the Active and the end of June was down 29% from the prior year.
