Market Action Index
The Market Action Index helps answer "How's the Market?" by comparing the rate of sales with the available inventory.
- Current MAI: 33 (Slight Seller's Advantage)
- Last Month's MAI: 35
The MAI has decreased over time, indicating cooling market conditions. However, Encino is still in a Seller’s Market, meaning there is enough demand to keep the inventory low. If the MAI starts to rise again, we may see prices begin to climb. Conversely, if the MAI continues to fall or shifts into the Buyer’s zone, downward pressure on prices could follow.
Market Narrative
Encino’s market is seeing a cooling trend as the MAI continues to decrease, and prices have flattened. While still a Seller’s Market, this could be an early sign of shifting dynamics. If the MAI drops further, it may create opportunities for buyers, but sellers still hold a slight advantage for now.
