Why the available months matter before you act.

The number I would not ignore is supply. In Mechanicsville, VA, last month's 1.71 months tells me the market is still tight enough that both buyers and sellers need a plan before they move.
Supply was 1.71 months last month, and the typical sale closed at $450,000. That tells me homes are still clearing at a healthy pace, which keeps pressure on anyone trying to wait for perfect conditions. For buyers, the practical response is to be ready before you tour the right home. For sellers, it is to avoid soft pricing and stale presentation, because those two things can cost time very quickly. I would use this kind of market to stay organized, not optimistic. In Mechanicsville, VA, a clean strategy is worth more than a loose one.
