What does that mean?
“Total months’ supply increased to 8.4 from 8.1 in March, driven by an 11.5% increase in absolute inventories. This reflects a larger increase than the typical 6% rise in inventories from March-April, as we think people listed more homes for sale in anticipation of tax credit demand and foreclosures continued to come on to the market. However, we think inventories are likely even higher, as the NAR does not fully capture total foreclosure levels.”
If no other homes were put on the market today, the United States would not sell current inventory for 8.4 months….
