The difference this spring is that there continues to be a shortage of entry-level homes for sale, but the supply of higher-end homes is rising.

The number of homes for sale that were listed above $750,000 increased 11% year-over-year in March, while the number of entry-level homes priced $200,000 or below fell 9%.
