The Report is based on MLS data for the stated month in 52 metropolitan areas, includes single-family residential property types, and is not annualized. For maximum representation, most of the largest metro areas in the country are represented, and an attempt is made to include at least one metro area in almost every state. Metro areas are defined by the Core Based Statistical Areas (CBSAs) established by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>Definitions<br \/><\/b>Closed Transactions are the total number of closed residential transactions during the given month. Months&#8217; Supply of Inventory is the total number of residential properties listed for sale at the end of the month (current inventory) divided by the number of sales contracts signed (pending listings) during the month. Where &#8220;pending&#8221; data is unavailable, an inferred pending status is calculated using closed transactions. Days on Market is the average number of days that pass from the time a property is listed until the property goes under contract. Median Sales Price for a metro area is the median sales price for closed transactions in that metro area.\u00a0 The nationwide Median Sales Price is calculated at the nationwide aggregate level using all sale prices from the included metro areas.\u00a0 The Close-to-List Price Ratio is the average value of the sales price divided by the list price for each closed transaction.<\/p>\n<p>MLS data is provided by Seventy3, LLC, a RE\/MAX Holdings company. While MLS data is believed to be reliable, it cannot be guaranteed. MLS data is constantly being updated, making any analysis a snapshot at a particular time. Every month, the previous period&#8217;s data is updated to ensure accuracy over time.
