Was 2013 a new trajectory, or an abnormality?


Was 2013 a new trajectory, or an abnormality?

OK -- this is as clearly as I can put it.... The number in the brown bar (285, 301, 380, 333) shows how many homes sales had occurred by the end of May for the past four years. If we ignore 2013 (for a moment) we see that Jan-May 2014 home sales are a reasonable prediction based on the trajectory between 2011 and 2012. This, thus, leaves me wondering if the pace of home sales in 2013 was the new trajectory, or an abnormality. It could have been the new trajectory --- and perhaps 2014 home sales will catch back up later this year, after having been slowed down by wintry weather early in 2014. Or perhaps, 2013 was an abnormality --- and the pace of home sales in 2014 will not catch up to the fast pace of 2013. Only time will tell....
