8 Million Lost, 10 Million Gained

Jobs, Jobs, Jobs
During the recession, we lost 8 million jobs. We have gained 10 million back in 6 years since the start of the recession in 2008.
However, because our population is growing, we need to add about 1 million jobs to stay even. So we should have gained an
additional 6 million jobs during this period so there is still job recovery needed. In addition, some of the new jobs are not equivalent to
the jobs that were lost-there are more jobs in the service industry and fewer professional jobs.

which has to do with the number of people actually looking for a job. The Unemployment Rate does not include unemployed
people who have quit looking for jobs. The Employment Rate is significantly down since before the 2008 Recession.

Inventory of Single Family Houses
by Month in Greater Richmond
5050
The supply (inventory) of houses is determined by the number of active listings divided by the monthly sales rate for the
past year. After 2+ years of inventory between 8 and 10 months, inventory began to drop in the later months of 2011 and
has continued to drop in 2012 and 2013. Inventory now is less than half of what it was three years ago. 2014 inventory
was very similar to 2013 inventory. A normal market is 5-6 months of inventory.
