* The Average $ of Newest Contracts considers the price the homes were listed at when they went under contract. Data pulled from Heartland MLS and deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Low samplings in any category can skew results. Stats may not be an exact 15 days from date of this post. DOM = Days On Market.

To cut the months of inventory in half we’d either need twice as many homes to sell or for there to be half as many homes on the market. Until one or the other – or a combination thereof – occurs, we’ll remain in a heavy buyer’s market.
