My thoughts: The drop in number of properties on the market is probably sellers taking their properties off the market, until September. I never understood the logic of that, but okay.

Average sales price has dropped $46,000, over the past three weeks. Now, keep in mind, these are SALE prices, meaning they closed in the past week, meaning they went under agreement probably six weeks ago. That means we’re just now seeing the price drops that may have started, over a month ago. Keep an eye on that figure. It shows what people are actually paying for homes. List prices, on the other hand, have stayed pretty constant, even with the market slowdown.
