7.Something Months of Inventory Holding Strong for 3 Months
We only have 7.6 months of inventory in Portland! That's great compared to last year at this time when it would have taken 10.4 months to sell everything on the market. That number has been at 7.something for 3 months now, we could use it going down to 6, which is a neutral market for buyers and sellers. Having about 7 months of inventory means that there is a slight buyers advantage. That is basically coming from the homes priced higher than $300,000, however, because anything less than that is in the range of first time buyers, who have tons of pressure to buy now and not miss out on the $8000 tax credit. More info later on the median sale prices for Portland neighborhoods
