New listings has decreased every year. This is why prices have increased.
More of the homes that have gone under contract that actually closed has increased every year. It has helped that loan officers are putting buyer’s through underwriting instead of just getting their information over the phone and checking their credit. We know the buyer’s are good to go and just need to make sure the appraisal works out and no issues with title.
