Discussion
Hey Masoud, great question... I think it is a sign that builders are "getting it." They have slowed production because they know that the market has too many homes for our current rate of demand. Unfortunately, it does not mean that more new homes are needed, as the existing homes in the same price range are nearly 10 months of supply and overall, that price point still has more than 9 months of supply. I do not believe that new construction operates "on its own," rather it is part of the overall supply.
As values continue to decline, some of the homes in the next higher price range (10.8 months of supply) will be reduced to compete in this price range. These price reductions will bring in all the new supply that this price range needs for the next few years (I know...not what you want to hear :( ).
