How plugged is the drain? Two definitions, both ours, deliberately not reconciled.

  • 6%Absorption vs its own normal— 1 - (closed sales / active listings) / same-month median of that ratio
  • 25%Closed sales vs its own normal— 1 - closed sales per month / same-month median closed sales per month

Closed sales over 24 months — two different numbers, deliberately not merged.

  • 129/mofall in the monthly rate (14%)— peak 928/mo (2025-07-31) to 800/mo now
  • 4,690transactions that did not happen— summed monthly shortfall vs the same-month normal, over 24 months below it (vs 2015-19 (COVID excluded))
  • rate_drop_from_peak is a change in the monthly rate; cumulative_shortfall_vs_normal counts transactions not transacted. They are different quantities and are not interchangeable.
2026-09-30

Redfin market data (county + ZIP), via Lotvox. As of 2026-09-30. Normal = same-month median of monthly rates, minimum 3 same-month points. Source window 3 months (flows shown per month). Aggregated over a fixed panel of 42 zips — the panel is fixed so a change in who reports cannot look like a change in the market. months_of_supply is not published at this grain (0 non-null rows measured); derived here as active listings / closed sales per month.
