I don’t use the days on market calculated by the MLS. I use a simple method to calculate the absorption rate/days on market that doesn’t manipulate the data. According to that calculation we have  7.7 months of inventory on the market, that’s 232 days on market. I should add that this calculation does not take into account the different types of homes, location or different price ranges, so it’s not a huge help to you if you’re selling your home. If you’re selling a home both of those factors would need to be looked at as they play into how many days on market you can expect when you list your home for sale.
