March 2026 | Housing Stats

Trends differ based on property type

Supply conditions in March varied significantly depending on property type. Inventory levels saw a typical monthly rise, but compared with long-term trends, inventory remained well above the 10-year average for both row and apartment-style units and well below trend for detached homes.

There were 1,881 sales in March, up from the previous month, but still 13 percent lower than levels reported last year and below long-term trends for March. The decline in sales is mostly due to pullbacks in apartment-style activity, where increased supply choice and slower migration is spreading demand across a wider range of supply.
