Absorption Rate Analysis: December 2023

As our absorption rate analysis blogs have likely emphasized by now, statistics are often at the whim of interpretation. These numbers are concrete: they tell us something that actually happened. A certain number of homes were sold in a given area. A certain number of homes were on the market in that same area. Anything beyond that is an assigned meaning that we’ve come to through a mixtu...

Absorption Rate Analysis: Brings a Late Holiday Gift for Buyers

February 5, 2024 We’ve come to expect lower absorption rates in January, but January 2024 more than understood the assignment. All except one neighborhood dropped further into the buyer’s favor. One dropped further toward the buyer’s favor than we’ve ever seen in a single month. Another has officially camped out at the threshold of the universally accepted buyer&rsquo...

Absorption Rate Analysis

February’s come and gone and we have to say it wasn’t quite the expected mad dash deeper into seller’s territory. Typically, when we see a nearly unanimous drop toward the buyer’s favor like what we witnessed in January, it’s just the beginning of the slingshot being pulled back. The next month is almost always a severe snap in the opposite direction. And while hal...

The Jacaranda Trees Are About to Bloom Again!

It’s almost that time again. A point when the city itself seems to blossom in a violet-blue phantasmagoria of botanical beauty. A spectacle as aggressive in its vibrance as it is delicate in its serendipitous sensibility. Just as a watercolor bleeds beyond the audacity of a penciled boundary, the languidly waving blossoms seem to blend together in a natural majesty at once gentle and over...

Absorption Rate Analysis: April 2024

April 2024 brings more of that same energy we saw in March as the industry shakes off the accumulated frost of the holiday hibernation. A lot of our communities continued to climb further into the seller’s market, though with less severity. One neighborhood really ingratiated itself to sellers with a double-digit surge. But it was a usual suspect (we’ll get to that in a moment). A f...
