In July, national traffic was already roughly in line with last year\u2019s numbers, and if the current trend continues, listings on average could see more showings this fall than what we saw in the fall of 2018.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The ShowingTime Showing Index, the first of its kind in the residential real estate industry, is compiled using data from property showings scheduled across the country on listings using ShowingTime products and services, providing a benchmark to track buyer demand.
