As of June 9th, inventory was at 443 thousand (7-day average), compared to 436 thousand the prior week.
Year-to-date, inventory is down 9.7%. And inventory is up 9.3% from the seasonal bottom eight weeks ago.
The second graph shows the seasonal pattern for active single-family inventory since 2015.
The red line is for 2023. The black line is for 2019. Note that inventory is up from the previous two years (the record low was in 2022), but still well below normal levels.
Inventory was up 12.8% compared to the same week in 2022 (last week it was up 18.4%), and down 52.4% compared to the same week in 2019 (last week down 53.7%).
It appears likely inventory will be down year-over-year in late June or early July.
