Inventory

[Matthew]

The housingtracker.net stats are out for today, and inventory is slowly rising once again. I figure come April/May we will start seeing bigger swings in terms of inventory.

What happens this month in terms of inventory could be quite interesting. Looking at the Seattle Bubble spreadsheet, you can see that the largest month-to-month jump in inventory (since 2000) from January to February was 6.9%, with the average coming in at just 2.7%. If inventory jumps by 10% or more this month, it could very well be a sign of something bigger right around the corner...

There is a good portion of pending sales taking place, so the end of month sales figures will be interesting to see.
