The MISSION VIEJO market is currently quite strongly in the Seller's Advantage zone (greater than 30). The 90-day Market Action
Index stands at 65.22; indicating very little supply relative to the demand.

Not surprisingly, all segments in the market are showing high levels of demand. Watch the quartiles for changes before the
