Balanced Market Health Score (BMHS)
Explore the Austin Balanced Market Health Score (BMHS) for a simplified market health view. Analyze MHI, Activity Index, and more with historical data from Team Price Real Estate’s metrics.
The Balanced Market Health Score (BMHS) provides a streamlined view of the Austin real estate market’s health, combining the Market Health Index (MHI), Activity Index, and Pending-to-Active ratio into a single, easy-to-understand score that reflects market balance and activity, making it a valuable tool for assessing market conditions.
Historical data illustrates its range; for example, in March 2021, the BMHS peaked at 1.54 (154%), indicating a strong seller’s market with high demand and rapid sales, while in November 2008, it dropped to a low of 0.15 (15%), reflecting a weak buyer’s market during the financial crisis.
A BMHS typically above 0.7 (70%), signals a seller’s market with strong demand and fast sales, often seen during periods of low inventory, whereas a BMHS below 0.3 (30%), indicates a buyer’s market with slower activity and more inventory, common during economic slowdowns.
