This is a nice increase from the 218 new listings we saw in December (last month), even though new listings are still down -13.3% from January of last year. We still have a lack of homes for sale to keep up with the demand because people are staying in their homes longer, and there have not been enough new homes built to satisfy the number of buyers.
