Clark County finally saw a slight improvement in its supply-constrained housing market situation in January, according to the latest report from the Regional Multiple Listing Service.
Southwest Washington’s inventory in months — a measure of how long it would take to sell through the existing supply of houses on the market — rose from 0.6 in December to 0.8 in January. That’s still a near-record low, but it’s the first time the number has increased since August.
