Methodology. Use the Time range and Rolling avg controls at the top of the page to set the comparison window (1Y / 3Y / 5Y / All) and the smoothing (1 / 3 / 6 / 12-month trailing average). Defaults are 1Y vs. prior and 3-month smoothing, which dampens month-to-month noise in low-volume markets. Months of Supply appears two ways. The trend charts use a pending-based proxy (active listings ÷ pending listings) since RDC data does not include closed sales counts; it reads tighter than sold-based measures because monthly pendings exceed closings. Where shown, the sold-based figure (active listings ÷ closed sales) comes from Realtors Property Resource® and matches how most MLS reports calculate MoS. For the sold-based figure: below 4 months = seller's market. 4-6 months = balanced. Above 6 = buyer's market. The pending-based proxy runs roughly 1.5-2 months lower. Combined-ZIP markets sum counts directly and weight medians/DOM by active listing count. Cape May Point and Strathmere flagged low-volume when monthly active listings drop below 5; small-sample volatility expected. Source: Realtor.com Research Data (RDC).
