The numbers for the Omaha real estate market are in for the month of October and they are a little disappointing. Based on the rate of sales there is currently just over a six month supply of homes to sell. This is the largest supply of homes since February 2009.

Much of this is due to the looming expiration of the $8,000 First Time Home Buyers Tax Credit. If this were to be extending, as some in Congress are proposing, I expect that sales would pick up a bit.
