What is Market Absorption?

Market absorption trends show the rate that properties are selling compared with inventory which enables us to see if it is a sellers’ or buyers’ market.

6 months worth of inventory is a balanced market. Under 6 months is a sellers’ market, and anything over 6 months is a buyers’ market.

All information from the CLAW MLS is deemed accurate but is not guaranteed.

Absorption Rate: 6 months = balanced market; Over 6 months = buyers’ market; Under 6 months = sellers’ market

* The Beverly West has just opened its sales office so statistics are not yet applicable for this building. There is one unit in escrow at a list price of $5,717,250.

** The Carlyle sells in-house also so numbers are not accurately reflected.

Average days on the market are also skewed by the fact that a listing could come on the market, sell quickly and not reflect that some units in the same building have been on the market for two years or more.

However, interpreting the above statistics as best we can the preponderance of Wilshire Corridor condos favor a sellers’ market.
