Newly-released figures from Northwest MLS show inventory at the end of December was down 31% from the same month a year ago, with only 8,469 active listings compared to the year-ago total of 12,275.
The figures include single-family homes and condominiums across the 23 counties in the MLS service area.
Last month marked the sixth straight month of declining inventory, noted James Young, director of the Washington Center for Real Estate Research.
MLS figures show inventory peaked in June when the database had 16,680 active listings; about twice as many as December.
Inventory for single-family homes and condos (combined) was down by more than 30% in seven counties: Thurston (-54%), Pierce (-38.9%), King (-38.8%), Snohomish (-35.6%), Mason (-32%), Kitsap (-30.6%), and Skagit (-30.5%). System-wide there is only about 1.2 months of supply.
The inventory of single-family homes (excluding condos) is especially tight in several counties, notably Thurston (-54%), King (-41.4%), Pierce (-40%), Snohomish (-36.1%), and Kitsap (-34.3%).
