The number of closed sales is up 22% Countywide from a year ago.  November pending sales were up 11% from a year ago in Poulsbo. Recall this number includes pending short sales and new construction that may not close soon. The Poulsbo listing inventory (84) is 45% lower than a year ago. The inventory turnover (total homes on the market divided by number sold last month) is 4.2 months, a little worse than the 3.9 months reported last month. Poulsbo’s market has been humming along for the past several months, but it is probably still a buyers market because of the shadow inventory of homes pulled off the market in the past year without selling.
