Existing homeowners with mortgages bearing relatively low interest rates may be balking at the prospect of “trading up”.

To the extent they don’t list their homes for sale, or delay doing so, Y-O-Y inventory would predictably drop.

Obviously other driving factors may exist but this could be one.

They can’t build them fast enough around here. 4000 new homes going up just 2 miles from me.
