The inventory data in this report includes homes that were on the market for at least 30 days, or at least 60 days, without going under contract and were actively listed on the final day of the month. The share of homes sitting for at least 30 (or 60) days is seasonal; it typically peaks in the winter and troughs in the spring\u2013which is why the charts in this report focus on year-over-year changes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stubbornly high mortgage rates and record-high home prices have priced out many homebuyers, tempering demand even at a time of year when the housing market is typically warming up. The average 30-year fixed mortgage rate is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freddiemac.com\/pmms\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6.99%<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, more than double the pandemic-era low and just slightly below October 2023\u2019s two-decade high of 7.8%.

That\u2019s unchanged from a year earlier and up from 27.8% two years earlier.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The share of homes sitting on the market for at least 60 days was essentially flat year over year in both April and May. Before that, the metric had posted annual declines since last September. The share of homes sitting for at least 60 days is likely to start increasing next month so long as mortgage rates stay high, according to Redfin economists. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-78069 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Screenshot-2024-06-10-143640.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"617\" height=\"459\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Screenshot-2024-06-10-143640.png 617w, https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Screenshot-2024-06-10-143640-300x223.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 617px) 100vw, 617px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Metro-level highlights: Unsold inventory, May 2024<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The share of inventory sitting on the market for 30-plus days is growing fastest in Dallas. Just over 60% of Dallas listings that were on the market in May had been listed for at least 30 days, up from 53% a year earlier. Next come three Florida metros: Fort Lauderdale (75.5%, up from 68.2%), Tampa (68.7%, up from 61.9%) and Jacksonville (69.2%, up from 62.9%). Inventory is growing stale fast in Texas and Florida largely because those states are building far more homes than anywhere else in the country, contributing to <\/span><a
