2nd Look at Local Housing Markets in March

Today, in the Calculated Risk Real Estate Newsletter: 2nd Look at Local Housing Markets in March

A brief excerpt:

Here is a summary of active listings for these housing markets in March. Note: Inventory usually increases seasonally in March, so the month-over-month (MoM) increase is not surprising.

Inventory was up 9.3% in March MoM from February, and down 13.4% year-over-year (YoY). Inventory in about half of these markets was up YoY.

It appears inventory bottomed in February. Last month, these markets were down 23.3% YoY, so this is a significant change from February. This is the first step towards a more balanced market, but inventory levels are still very low.
