June 2019 closings slumped and fizzled with weakness in every market segment except the luxury market segment. In fact, the market is now 8% behind last year. The high rise market segment has now tumbled and fallen back to 2014 levels.

Closed sales by community reveals anywhere from 2 to 14 months of inventory – depending upon the specific community. Overall there is 2.9 months of SFR inventory. The months of inventory increased from 2.5 month as a result of in increase in available inventory even as closed sales slumped behind last month and last year. Yet, that doesn’t seem to curb the over pricing! The good news is that this market shift has put downward pressure on listing prices of available inventory as well as SFR closed sales prices.

There is now 2.8 months of condo/town-home inventory currently available. Vertical/high rise sales continue to stall at 2014 levels while luxury sales keep pace!
