Supply

Definition: The quantity of goods, services, or property available for sale or lease at specified prices during a relevant period.

Example

An increase in available rental units adds to housing supply in the local market.

Keep the distinction clear

Inventory is a snapshot of available property; supply is the broader economic relationship between quantity offered and price. Demand must also be considered when interpreting market conditions.
