Housing Inventory: town by town guide
Last week’s report Housing inventory increases again pointed out that year-over-year inventory in the 34 cities and towns of Essex County had increased for the 3rd consecutive month (4th for condos), but also commented that inventory still remains very low overall.
As promised, here is a breakdown of the current supply of Single Family Homes (SFH) for each city and town, as measured by the number of months of sales represented by the number of houses for sale.
As a general guide, a market is regarded as being in equilibrium between buyers and sellers when there is 6 months of supply. Thus, while there has been – finally – some increase in supply, overall it remains clearly a strong sellers’ market, although there are signs that pricing power for sellers is not as strong as it was in the spring.

Housing Inventory increases again
The number of Single Family Homes (SFHS) for sale in the 34 cities and towns of Essex County, as measured on the first of the month and compared with a year ago, increased for the 3rd consecutive month in September. This date, of course, was just before Labor Day, and there has been a sharp jump in the number of SFHs for sale in the last few days.

The number of Condos for sale increased for the 4th consecutive month.

Comment
The percentage increases in the first few days of September was significantly greater in 2018 than in 2017, especially for condos. For both SFHs and Condos inventory is the highest in almost two years.
A later report will analyze the supply by individual city and town.
