existing home in the US was $418k, a slight increase from the March result, which is

in line with the typical seasonal cadence at this time of year. We usually expect prices

to climb sequentially during the start of the year, typically peaking in June. The median

price was up about 0.9% y/y.

Months of Supply and Inventory Up Slightly On Sequential Basis. NAR reported

months of supply at 4.4 for April, which is flat y/y but higher sequentially. For reference,
