Below are the Months Inventory Charts for zip code 76020 (the Azle, Texas area) with a comparison of August and September 2009. As you can see, August inventories in many price bands were normalized while others were high. As expected, September indicates a downturn in the market which is not unusual for this time of the year. However, it is not a good sign for home sellers or for the economic outlook in the area when virtually all price bands are in a "Buyer's Market". If the government extends the $8000 First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit after November, we could see inventories drop some, particularly in the $0-$100K bands. This program was a success for the Fort Worth area this year. In a few days I will post the September thru October 2009 comparative data which will provide as more insight into which direction this market is heading.
