Interest Rates
The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 4.35% during the week of February 28, remaining virtually unchanged from the prior week and the lowest since February 2018. Despite the median listing price nationwide now 7% higher than a year ago at $295,000, the impact of rates coming back down (and potentially staying down for at least a little while longer) brings renewed hope for the housing market this spring in terms of demand for borrowers. |

Brooklyn Inventory – Month’s Supply
What is Month’s Supply?
Months of supply is the measure of how many months it would take for the current inventory of homes on the market to sell, given the current pace of home sales. For example, if there are 50 homes on the market and 10 homes selling each month, there is a 5 month supply of homes for sale.
Months of supply is a good indicator of whether a particular real estate market is favoring buyers or sellers. Typically, a market that favors sellers has less than 6 months of supply, while more than 6 months of supply indicates an excess of homes for sale that favors buyers.
