Despite this week's up tic, the market seems to have paused around this plateau. The Market Action Index is a good leading
indicator for the durability of this shift.

Price weakness is evident almost across the board. Quartiles 2, 3, and 4 have been in price decline in recent weeks, with

The market plateau is seen across the price and value. The price per square foot and median list price have both been
reasonably stagnant. Watch the Market Action Index for persistent changes as a leading indicator before the market moves from
these levels.

BEACH, CA

Market Action Index


The HUNTINGTON BEACH market is currently quite strongly in the Buyer's Advantage zone (below 30). The 90-day Market Action
Index stands at 19.21. With several months of inventory available at the current sales rate, buyers should find ample choice.

90-day Average Buyers/Sellers Cutoff

Market Action Index per Quartile


Not surprisingly given the overall Market Action Index, all quartiles are in the Buyer's Market zone with several months of
inventory given the current rate of demand for homes in the quartile. Watch the quartile for changes before the overall market
shifts. Often one end of the market (e.g. the low end) will improve and signal a strengthening market before the whole group

First/Top Second/Upper Third/Lower Fourth/Bottom

Buyers/Sellers Cutoff
Residential house prices are a function of supply and demand, and market conditions can be characterized by
analyzing those factors. Watch this index for sustained changes: if the index falls into the Buyer’s Advantage
zone (below 30) for a long period, prices are likely in for a downward correction.

The Market Action Index (MAI) illustrates a blance between supply and demand using a statistical function of the
current rate of sale versus current inventory.
