Start with the typical home: $143,026. Put 20% down and borrow $114,421 at 7.40%, the 30-year fixed average as of October 8, 2026.

The line holds today's rate fixed and moves only the price: at that rate, the same share was 11.5% in 2000.

General prices (CPI-U) rose +97% over the same span.

Picture the Listings Flow Ladder as a basin: new listings pour in from the faucet, the homes for sale are the water, and closed sales run out the drain. Coming in — new listings: about 51 a month (Redfin, 3-month rolling data through August 2026).

On the shelf — homes for sale at the end of the period: 163.

Going out — closed sales: about 26 a month. The drain is drawn 47% narrower: the share of homes for sale that sell each month is 53% of its 2015–2019 level.

The ladder: homes for sale ÷ monthly sales = 6.3 months of supply — above the 4–6 month balanced range. In the basin, that is the water level against the shaded balanced band.

The net reading: about 25 more homes came on than sold each month, so inventory is growing. The basin is filling.

Homes sold: about 26 a month in August 2026 (Redfin).

The 2015–2019 level for the same month was 14 — so sales ran at 186% of it, and below it in 3 of the last 24 months.
