Market time for sale of Irvine homes

When comparing number of Irvine homes sold (165) during July with the number of those listed for sale at end of month (821), we find that 20 percent of homes on market were sold in this one month.  So at that rate of sale, it would theoretically take five months to sell all Irvine homes now on the market. 

What we learned

Irvine, CA, housing market is a bit softer these days.  The number of Irvine homes listed for sale in July was up, and number of homes sold was down from prior months.  Market time for sale at Irvine homes is longer (about 5 months), showing more balance, not favoring buyers or sellers.
