One of the real housing inventory shortages over the past few years has been in Manhattan Village.  While there have been some townhomes for sale there have been almost no single family homes available.  The last MLS sale for a single family home in Manhattan Village was in January of 2016 and the only sale in all of 2015 happened in April of that year.  Manhattan Village is one of the only gated communities in the area and offers “court” homes (multiple townhome style units with nobody above or below), townhome units and single family estate homes.  While there have been a healthy inventory of the townhomes, the single family homes are few and far between.
