Summary:
 
The January real estate market offered little change from previous months. Inventory remains critically low, with 63 available homes for 105K+ population. Rapid price increases are shutting the door to home ownership to more of that population. Those buyers who either can or must be in the market now are finding fierce competition and a brutal seller's market, but one that is operating well below sustainable levels of activity. The economic outlook, with likely interest rate increases in coming months, isn't positive in the short run either, but the pandemic and its associated challenges have sharpened our skills at dealing with difficult challenges. Unlike 2008, it isn't the real estate sector that is driving the market - nor suffering the worst of its effects - but we are most definitely along for the ride. And we don't see much change coming in the immediate future.
