  1. 2012 Annual Housing Market Survey

  2. Methodology C.A.R. has conducted the Annual Housing Market Survey since 1981. The questions and methodology have stayed essentially the same throughout that time. The survey was mailed to a random sample of 15,000 REALTORS® throughout California. The sample represented the geographical distribution of C.A.R. membership across the state. The survey asked REALTORS® to provide information from their most recent sales transaction that closed escrow in the second quarter of 2012. The survey instrument was a seven-page questionnaire with both multiple choice and open-ended questions. There were 932 valid survey responses, equivalent to a response rate of 6.2 percent. The margin of error for this survey was +/- 3.2 percent at a 95 percent confidence level.
  3. CA Unsold Inventory: Nearing Record Lows September 2012: 3.7 Months Note: “Unsold Inventory Index” represents the number of months it would take to sell the remaining inventory for the month in question. The remaining inventory for the month is defined as the number of properties that were “Active”, “Pending”, and “Contingent” (when available) and divide the sum by the number of “Sold” properties for the month in question.
