October Active Inventory Update

October Inventory Data is in, it took me a bit longer than usual to compile the data and post it up, so I apologise for that. We're still pushing ever higher with the listings. The rate of increase seems to have tempered a bit from last month, however is still maintaining a strong upward trend.

There was a burst of sales, withdrawl, and expiration activity towards the end of the month that pushed many of the active listings numbers down on the 31st of the month. Many counties had numbers a few tenths to whole percentage points greater around the third week of the month. This activity is typical.
