The daily efforts of housing market professionals achieved some impressive successes in May. Existing Home Sales were up 4.9% for the month, to a 4.89 million annual rate. Sales are still down a tick versus last year, but they're getting closer to a healthy 5 million unit yearly pace. It was especially good to see that inventories continued to grow in May and are now up 6% compared to a year ago. The months' supply dipped to 5.6 months thanks to the faster selling pace. The median price for existing homes is up 5.1% over a year ago, which is no doubt bringing more sellers into the market.
