Arrr! The tally be in, me hearties! The count o' homes up for grabs be sinkin' faster than a scurvy dog in September. A sorry 4% drop it be, compared to last year. And that's not all!

Arrr mateys, listen up! We be facin' a mighty shortage in the housing market, just like the shortage of grog on a pirate ship! Arrr! According to them fancy real estate folks at Realtor.com, the number of homes for sale be droppin' for the fifth month in a row. That's right, me hearties, there be even less homes available than last year!Now, ye might be wonderin' why this be happenin'. Well, me fellow pirates, it be a combination of factors. First off, ye got them homes that be under contract but not yet sold, takin' a dive of 4% compared to last year. That means there be even less options out there for ye landlubbers lookin' to buy.
But wait, there be more! The supply of available homes be down a jaw-droppin' 45.1% from what ye would normally expect before that cursed COVID-19 pandemic came ashore. That's like findin' a hidden treasure in a sea of empty barrels, me mateys!

The housing market be as treacherous as a stormy sea, with fewer options and fierce competition. Ye best be ready to fight like a scurvy dog to snag a home in this market, or ye might be walkin' the plank of disappointment.
But fear not, me hearties! There be always hope. Keep a weather eye on the horizon and stay persistent. Be willin' to be flexible and open to new possibilities. And remember, just like a pirate searchin' for buried treasure, sometimes ye gotta dig a little deeper to find yer dream home. Arrr!
