Home Dictionary A Absorption Rate The takeover ratio is commonly used in the real estate market to determine how many houses are on the market at a given time. The equation can also be used to figure out how long it will take to sell an offer of houses on the market. Real estate agents, appraisers and lending institutions use absorption rates to understand market conditions and adjust conditions accordingly. An engulfing level above 20% usually signals a seller’s market, while an engulfing level below 15% indicates a buyer’s market. Absorption rates are also used to determine and allocate overheads in accounting. 18-Hour City
