National Association of Realtors: Monthly Supply of Homes
This database is dedicated to the National Association of Realtors’ (NAR) supply of homes series. The series—obtained directly from the NAR—cover more than 100 OMB defined metropolitan statistical areas (MSA) and metropolitan divisions.
Beginning in 1990Q1, NAR Month's Supply series (listing/sales) is derived from a sample of Multiple Listing Services (MLS) representing different metropolitan areas. All the data in NAR Monthly Supply of Homes are expressed in months on the market.
The months supply of home sales statistic can be used to gauge the state of a local market. It is commonly held that a 6 month supply of home sales shows a market to be in equilibrium. Deviation from that figure can tell you about the current status of the market and may help to anticipate future behavior
National Association of Realtors: Pending Home Sales Index
This database is dedicated to the National Association of Realtors’ (NAR) pending home sales with 79 series—obtained directly from the NAR—covering various OMB defined metropolitan statistical areas (MSA) and micropolitan areas. The series begin in 2001Q1, and all of the series are indexed to that year.
Since pending home sales measure actual existing-home sales the PHSI provides an accurate and reliable indicator of future home sales activity, and therefore can be thought of as a leading indicator for existing home sales.
According to the NAR, the majority—more than 80%—of pending home sales become home sales transactions within the next two months, and a majority of the rest close during the following two months. Some pending home sales do not go to closing; thus, a certain percentage of properties that go under contract do not reach settlement.
