Showings on homes with SentriLock lockboxes were down 1% in June compared to one year ago, as home prices are at a record high and increasing at the quickest rate ever, according to the NAR SentriLock June 2021 Home Showings Report by the National Association of REALTORS® Research Group.

SentriLock lockboxes are used in roughly one-third of home showings across the nation. Every month, SentriLock, LLC provides its parent company, the National Association of REALTORS®, with data on the number of properties shown by a REALTOR®. Foot traffic has a strong correlation with future contracts and home sales, so it can be viewed as a peek ahead at sales trends two to three months into the future.
