The Months of Inventory and the Absorption Rate
The months of Inventory and the Absorption rate are basically the two most important indicators in Real Estate. The months of inventory tells us whether its a sellers or a buyers market and how saturated the market is. The absorption rate measures the inverse of Months of Inventory and represents how much of the current active listings (as a percentage) are being absorbed (sold or pended) each month. The Absorption Rate is presented as a percentage (%) of the current inventory. With 19.5 months of inventory or a 5.1% absorption rate, Coconut Grove is currently in a buyers market. The inventory has been on the rise for a couple of months now and this is something for home owner to keep a close eye on! Follow our updates to see how the market is developing
