U.S. Home sales down 6.1% BUT the TRIAD home sales are UP 4% in NC. OK so the numbers are in. The US Census Bureau has reported that new home sales are down 6.1% from January of 2009. They further said that the Western part of the country did better then the rest. The West turned in a whopping increase of 13.8% over the same time last year.
The Midwest reported a modest gain of 2.1%. While in the total area of the South they had a decline of 9.5% and the unfortunate region was the Northeast being repeatedly slammed with winter storms and a decline of 35.1% (OUCH).
So here in the Triad of North Carolina we actually sold more homes in January of 2010 then we did in January of 2009. The number of homes sold increased by 4.2%. Now the average price of those homes did slip a little.
