Inventory Watch
The North Shore Development Council (NSDCC) reported a 33% jump in pending home sales over the past two weeks, signaling a rapid acceleration as the market enters its spring season.

If the trend continues, pending activity could surpass the 2024 benchmark line on the council’s tracking graph.
