It says there were an average of 39 homes for sale per estate agent branch, compared to 44 in February - the lowest figure the NAEA has recorded for the month of March since it started measuring it in 2002. Annually, supply is down 28%, with ten house hunters currently chasing each available property, NAEA said.
