Market Narrative
Market conditions have recently resumed tightening. As the rate of home sales increases relative to the number of homes on the market, the Market Action Index increases. Even though the MAI is technically in the Seller’s zone, prices have not yet started climbing along with the changes in Market Action, but expect them to do so if the trend continues.
