The numbers indicate that a cyclical low in sales is past but activity is not matching the frenzied pace of last spring.
February 2019 brought 5.51 million in sales, a median sales price of $249,500, and 3.5 months of inventory. The median sales price is up 3.6% year over year, and inventory is up 0.1% from February 2018.
