Yes for both. I suspect we had a mini-spike in expiries on May 15th. There is normally a major spike at the end of the month, and a mini-spike on the 15th.

Thanks, VHB. The listings didn't seem to me to be reflected in the total - expiries make sense.

Who voted "never" in the poll?

Inventory is flat today at around 18250.
We'll have to wait another week for a jump. We'll probably only see 19k by the end of this month. Still not bad and still higher than 2008.
I've been calling and making low ball offers but sellers still haven't clued in.
Nobody is willing to take a 20% haircut off of current perceived market value

Nice! Thanks for updating the graph Vibe.
I like how the poll attached to this thread from a couple months ago is 'when will we hit 15k of inventory' and now we're looking at when we hit 19k!

Are there a huge number of expiries at the end of the year? Just wondering why the graph isn't continuous.
Posted 1 year ago # -
@CanuckDownUnder yes year-end expiries are usually in the order of thousands.

Thanks vibe. Another piece of this is sales - concerned with their strength.. Is this concern well-founded?
Posted 1 year ago # -
Specuskeptic, I think in one of these threads VHB showed that sales are on pace to meet the second slowest year and they're trending down. I don't think there's a buyer's strike on yet although I imagine it will happen -- but certainly having more inventory in and of itself will help take some of the panic out of purchaser decisions, helping to change the psychology.

May 21st: 18435
Posted 1 year ago # -
May 20th 6:33pm: 18,365 (But more sales and listings were recorded after this time)
Posted 1 year ago # -
In May we have been adding net listings at a pace of 117 a day. There are 5 days left, meaning we will add about 584 more. Inventory on Friday was 18435. This would project to 19019 on May 31st.
BUT, the pace was noticeably slower last week. If we see the same apace this week we will not see 19K in May.
Posted 1 year ago # -
Second half of May seems to have lower listings growth than the first half historically. My bet is we don't hit 19K until late in the week of May 31st.

Here is a plot of 3 month moving average MOI I usually post on housing-analysis. Notice the similarity between 2008 and 2010? When MOI rises between April and May, nasty things happen to prices.
Posted 1 year ago # -
Here are the inventory gains over the last 5 years by month. I take the gain from the last available day of the previous month to the last available day of the current month. So, March 2010 gains are calculated as March 31 minus February 28th.
I hope this formats well.

- We weren't as strong in May 2010 as May 2008. Just a bit behind, though.
- If we gained the same 2075 as June 2008, we would be at 20,927 by June 30th.
- June sales for last four years are 3951, 4244, 2425, 4259. Average is 3720.
- If we see sales at say 2750 and end of June inventory at say 20,000, that would give MoI of 7.27.
- Things really slow down in July/August. So, what we see in June will more or less be the peak.
- There will be a mini listings spike in September and maybe into October, but that will more or less just recapture what was lost in July/August + maybe a little bit more.
- Based on all this, I predict we will peak somewhere between 21 and 22K for the year. This peak will happen in mid-October.
- Average October sales over the last 4 years are 2705. 2008 sales were 1364.
- Taking inventory of 21,500 with avg October sales gives MoI of 7.95. At the 2008 sales level, then MoI is 15.8. If you guess that October sales will be 2000, then that gives an MoI of 10.75.

18750. according to paulb June 10th.

18781, according to paulb. Sales were 100, new listings 230. We only gained 31 listings. Does this mean there were 99 expiries/pulled off market today?? That's a heap of things pulled off the market.
Getting to 19K is quite likely this month, but I don't think we'll see 20K.

You're disappointing me Vibe... I have my fingers crossed it's just flattening because lots of people are out to beat the HST, maybe we'll make up for lost time in July.
