The supply is calculated by taking the inventory and dividing that by the 12 months sales average. So on average, one could expect a home to be on the market for 7.3 months (9.1 for new and 7.1 for existing). This is still indicative of a buyers market, but this is the lowest supply level since February 2010. A lower housing supply figure could indicate that the housing market is heating up.
