Pending home sales show a sustained uptrend

Pending home sales show a sustained uptrend, rising for four consecutive months with very favorable housing affordability and a first-time buyer tax credit boosting activity, according to the National Association of Realtors.  For more, see the article in Realty Times.

For more indepth information on the local Mobile market, see Market Conditions. According to the local survey,

Pending home sales rose with many first-time buyers taking advantage of historically good housing affordability conditions, according to the National Association of REALTORS®.

The Pending Home Sales Index,1 a forward-looking indicator based on contracts signed in March, increased 3.2 percent to 84.6 from a level of 82.0 in February, and is 1.1 percent higher than March 2008 when it was 83.7.
