In a nutshell
Strong market as per usual. Slightly below average sales, but extremely limited inventory is causing prices to soar! HPI Benchmark price is up between 28%-32% in all categories compared to this time last year. Historically this is the lowest point in the year for inventory, hopefully we see rising inventory levels until the summer.  Time will tell!
