This graph shows homes for sale and homes sold through July 2009.
Some observations:
- There are 16% fewer homes for sale this year than there were the same time last year.
- The number of sales of homes this year is virtually the same as last year.
Therefore, the ratio of homes sold vs. homes for sale this year is much better than last year. So there is some good news in the real estate market.
