What is going on in the market? Is it the mid-summer dull-drums….does the economy sucks much worse than we’re lead to believe…our absorption rate has doubled in recent months….that being said we still technically have a shortage of listings. Our absorption rate is at 1 month a normal supply of inventory would be 3-6 months. Less than 3 is a seller’s market and more than 6 is a buyer’s market. Rates are incredible! I had a buyers loan get locked 2 days ago at 4.375 on a 30 year fixed….There’s no other way to put it…that’s a kick *** rate!
