The median price for a single-family house fell 14% to $169,000 in the first quarter from a year earlier, the National Association of Realtors reported. NAR said first-time home buyers accounted for half of all purchases in the quarter, and many of them zeroed in on foreclosed homes. According to NAR that dragged down the median.
Sales of single-family homes and condominiums declined 6.8% from a year earlier to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.6 million units. But sales were up sharply in some areas hardest hit by the housing bust, largely because bargain hunters were out in force. States with big sales increases from the depressed levels of a year before included Nevada (up 117%), California (81%) and Arizona (50%) and Florida (25%). See Full Story
