Absorption Rate
The absorption rate measures how quickly available inventory is being sold. It is calculated by dividing the monthly sales pace (homes sold in the last 90 days divided by three) by active inventory, expressed as a percentage. A rate above 20% indicates a seller's market. Around 15-20% is balanced. Below 15% favors buyers. Rates above 50% reflect a very competitive market where demand significantly outpaces supply. Source: MLSPIN.
Absorption rate = monthly sales pace ÷ active inventory, expressed as a percentage. Monthly sales pace is the last 90 days of closings divided by three. A rate above 20% favors sellers, 15-20% is balanced, and below 15% favors buyers. Readings above 100% mean current demand would clear the active inventory in under a month. Source: MLSPIN.
