First Quarter Residential Home Sales Down Slightly Over Last Year

This decrease has been widely attributed to the weather, but could also be a sign of a slowing recovery. Despite the year-over-year decrease, the pace of sales is increasing steadily as we enter the spring selling season. If the slow first quarter can indeed be attributed to the weather, we should see sales pick up substantially in the next couple of months.
