Mid-Year housing inventory down sharply

Preliminary data (a lot of sales scheduled to close by 6/30 have not been entered into MLS as yet) suggest that sales were up 14-20% in Essex County and Massachusetts in the first half of the year, and median price up 3-4%. The following table shows current inventory for local towns, Essex County and Massachusetts as a whole. The highlighted last column shows the change from a year ago. There are some huge changes, all showing lower inventory.
