Broadly, the May 2014 survey indicates that REALTOR®  confidence in May concerning current conditions was essentially flat, while registering a slight dip in confidence about the outlook for the next 6 months across all markets. Continued tightness in supply, although improving, difficult credit conditions, and the lackluster growth in income and savings were reported to be constraining sales. Local conditions vary.
