Single-Family:

Sales fell 17% in April. as we have seen in other areas a lot of the reason sales were down is simply with the extreme shortage of home on the market buyers just can not find a home to buy.

Condos and Townhouses:

Condo and townhouse sales were up by 8% compared to a year age. The average sales price declined by 5% and the median sales price fell by 14%. this just looks like there were a number of sales in the lower price ranges that pulled the averages down. Pending sales were up by 13% so next month's sales should be up.  The new listings dropped by 5% and the active listings by a whopping 24%. the months of inventory fell to 2.1 months.

Leases:

Leases fell by 24%. As in single-family the decline is due to the fact that there are very few properties for lease making it difficult to find a suitable property.

The pending leases were up by 100%. Last April was a very low month for leases. The new listings fell by 24% and the active listings declined by 40%. The months of inventory dropped to 1 month.
