Huntsville Real Estate Sales Statistics - August 2010
Home sales will remain soft in the months ahead, but improved affordability conditions should help with a recovery, according to the National Association of Realtors. The recovery looks to be a long process with job numbers being lower than expected in the last couple of months. However, affordability could reach a generational high in the second half of this year because of rock-bottom mortgage interest rates. The loan underwriting standards are tighter, but home buyers can improve their chances of getting a loan by staying well within their budget.Take a look at how the Huntsville real estate market fared in August.Madison County/Huntsville Real Estate Sales StatisticsHuntsville and Madison County saw an increase of 7% in sold listings in August when compared to July 2010.
