Home Sales Tick Up

Last week, The National Association of REALTORS® reported that existing home sales – which include single-family, townhomes, condominiums and co-ops – increased 3.6 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.89 million units in June.

This is third consecutive month that NAR has reported an increase in existing home sales. Lawrence Yun, NAR’s chief economist, added that “We expect a gradual uptrend in sales to continue due to tax-credit incentives and historically high affordability conditions.”
