Price per Square Foot

The market's downward trends are shared across both price and value. People are recently placing less value on homes (you can
see the recent declines in price per square foot as evidence.) Look for significant changes in the Market Action Index as a
precursor to price and value changes, possibly as inflection points for good investment opportunities.

7-day Average 90-day Average

Inventory of Properties Listed for Sale

Inventory has been relatively steady around these levels in recent weeks.

Market Action Index

The WILDWOOD, 63040 market is currently quite strongly in the Buyer's Advantage zone (below 30). The 90-day Market Action
Index stands at 9.84. With several months of inventory available at the current sales rate, buyers should find ample choice.

90-day Average Buyers/Sellers Cutoff

Market Action Index per Quartile

Not surprisingly, all quartiles are in the Buyer's Market zone with several months of inventory given the current levels of
demand. Watch the quartiles for changes before the overall market shifts.

First/Top Second/Upper Third/Lower Fourth/Bottom

Buyers/Sellers Cutoff
Residential house prices are a function of supply and demand, and market conditions can be characterized
by analyzing those factors. Watch this index for sustained changes: if the index falls into the Buyer’s
Advantage zone (below 30) for a long period, prices are likely in for a downward correction.

The Market Action Index (MAI) illustrates a balance between supply and demand using a statistical function
of the current rate of sale versus current inventory.
