If you saw the new Tallahassee Home Inventory Report for January 2010, then you saw some some mixed news in the Tallahassee real estate market! The good news is that we saw a reduction of the glut of homes for sale in our area, but the bad news is that relative supply (the supply of homes on the market relative to the current rate of sales) rose from 12.5 months of supply to 13.0 months of supply.

The important thing for both home buyers and home sellers in Tallahassee to understand is that “the market” covers all areas and all price ranges of homes for sale in Tallahassee. But each area and each price range is operating with varying influences, so the prudent consumer will study the Tallahassee Housing Supply and Demand Report each month in order to know the strength of their individual market segment.
