The speaker reports that as of end of August, absorption rate is about 2.5 to 2.6 months, average list price rose from $399,000 to $414,000 (about 3.69%), and average sales price rose from $380,000 to $395,000 (almost 4%), with days on market broadly steady (low 30s). They emphasize a seasonal dip in contracts in September and note a year to date increase in active inventory to about 6,700 versus about 6,600 last year, with active listings now over 5,000 for the first time in several years. The Loom argues the market remains mostly a seller’s market by zip but is trending toward a stronger buyer market, supported by an Altos Market Action Index declining from the 80s to a lower level.
