Active Listing Inventory increased 6% from 2,509 to 2,660 units. The Months of Inventory, however, remained unchanged at 1.5 Months. This figure represents the amount of time (in months) it would take for the current rate of sales to deplete the total active listing inventory. [CR Note: Active inventory is up 26.4% year-over-year]
The Average DOM (days on market) increased from 20 to 21 from May to June and the Median DOM increased from 9 to 10. “Days on market” represents the days between the initial listing of the home as “active” and the day it goes “pending.” Of the 1,767 sales this month, 80.1% (1,415) were on the market for 30 days or less and 92.4% (1,632) were on the market for 60 days or less.
