Dollars committing, price per foot.
Monthly dollar volume as bars measured with three month moving averages. The volume rose 38% from April and exceeded the trending moving average.
Contract dollar volume increased by 38% month over month while the signed contracts remained the same (21 vs 20). May's 21 signed contracts slightly exceeded the three-month average of 19. The average signed contract this month came in at $2,560,000 showing continued demand for the slightly larger unit inventory. June data is worth watching carefully. As we head into the summer where typically demand is slightly higher, will the activity trend above the expectation or fall short of it?
