Total housing inventory at the end of November was 1.33 million units, down 2.9% from October and up 17.7% from one year ago. Unsold inventory sits at a 3.8-month supply at the current sales rate with properties remaining on the market for around 32 days. The median existing-home price for all housing types in November was $406,100.
