The housing sales number were released a day ago and the local data for Jupiter and Palm beach Gardens reflects the county and the state sales numbers. The number of closed sales is off by about 30% and the months supply of inventory has doubled from a year ago. BUT, if we look at the numbers from last month we can see that this is leveling off at a bout a 3 month supply which historically for this area is a good Buyer-Seller balanced market.
