Analysis of MLS Area 500 for Single Family Homes: This market still favors buyers over sellers based on the fact that there is an 8 month supply of homes but this should not give buyers reason to hold off because average sale prices and median sale prices are both on the rise in spite of the supply.

Condominiums
Average Days on Market: 66 Days (Down From 70 Last Week)
Inventory of Active Listings: 135 Active Listings (Up from 118 from Last Week)

Analysis of MLS Area 500 for condos: There were two negative trends indicating a further slide into buyer territory but this market still favors sellers due to the fact that the absorbtion rate is under a 6 month supply. The two factors were an increase in active listings and an increase in the absorbtion rate. Sold listings increased as well and the average days on market went down which kept the region in balance. All prices have been on an upward trajectory for a few weeks in a row now.

Analysis of MLS Area 350 for condos: This MLS Area shifted from a balanced market to a buyers market over the course of the last four weeks and the fundamentals that created this shift have continued last week. Aside from average days on market which held steady, every other fundamental favored buyers. Inventory is up while the the number of sold and pendings remained constant. This area has been absorbing 12 listings a month for three weeks in a row until two weeks ago when it went down to 11 and has remained there for five weeks in a row. This is what pushed the absorbtion rate up to a 7+ month supply which falls in buyer territory.

Analysis of MLS Area 340 for Single Family Homes: This market has been inching towards a buyers a market from a sellers market for about three months now but there was a large spike in the number of sold and pendings six weeks ago. Sales returned to the levels they were at prior to the spike leaving this area in a balanced market for right now that has been inching ever-so-slightly into seller territory on a weekly basis.
