The data is derived from a sampling of MLS data across the nation. The release shows the current sales rate for existing single-family, coops, and condos. A national figure and four regional figures are provided. The housing market is a critical component of the US economy. A house is usually one of the largest assets a consumer owns. Housing usually leads market recoveries or can signal trouble ahead. The housing industry remains mixed while some areas show strength, others languish. While the release usually is not a big market mover it still has the potential to result in some market volatility and provides a snapshot of the health of the housing industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MARKET COMMENT Mortgage bond prices finished the week lower which put upward pressure on rates.
