Single-Family Inventory Trends: 2021–2025

Bar chart showing the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate in the United States from 2021 to 2025, with rates increasing from 2.96% in 2021 to a peak of 6.81% in 2023.

Inventory was one of the biggest changes in the Venice housing market during this period. In 2021, available inventory was extremely tight, with many months showing fewer than 300 homes available. By late 2022 and throughout 2023, inventory began rebuilding as higher mortgage rates cooled buyer demand and more listings remained active for longer periods.

The available Venice Area Board of REALTORS®/Stellar MLS inventory history shows how quickly the supply changed.

YearInventory Reference PointApproximate InventoryMarket Meaning
2021December 2021233Very low inventory; strong seller advantage
2022December 2022675Inventory rebuilding as demand slowed
2023December 20231,088More choices for buyers; less urgency than 2021–2022
2024December 20241,219Higher inventory and longer marketing times
2025May 20251,425Elevated supply; buyers had more negotiating room

This increase in inventory changed the market’s tone. In 2021, limited supply helped create fast-moving conditions, stronger competition among buyers, and upward pressure on prices. As inventory expanded in 2023, 2024, and 2025, buyers had more homes to compare, more time to make decisions, and more room to negotiate on price, repairs, closing terms, and seller concessions.

For sellers, the rise in inventory means pricing accuracy has become much more important.

Homes that were priced too aggressively had to compete against a larger number of active listings. In a higher inventory environment, condition, presentation, location, and realistic pricing became key factors in attracting serious buyer interest.

NO MORE STANDING IN LINE TO SEE A PROPERTY. NO MORE, PUT YOUR NAME IN A HAT AND PRAY!

For buyers, the inventory recovery created a very different experience from the 2021 market. Instead of facing very limited choices, buyers in 2024 and 2025 had more available homes, more leverage, and more opportunity to compare neighborhoods, property condition, insurance costs, HOA fees, and overall value before making an offer.

What This Means for Venice Buyers and Sellers

NOBODY IS GOING TO BUY YOUR OVERPRICED LISTING!

Bottom Line: Cash is King, and cash buyers have many wonderful choices and are getting great deals!

Many mortgage buyers are afraid to buy, can’t qualify at higher rates, or can’t figure out that “buy now, refinance later ” is a good thing!
