Home Sales Lagging Elsewhere


Home sales in Nashville are up slightly for July, as previously mentioned, but they are lagging across the nation, according to the New York Times (registration required to read).

The good news around here is that the South is the only region where home sales increased last month. If not for the South, according to the article, home sales would have experienced their first decrease in volume since 1995. That's a long time.

As noted by another local blogger, home ownership is not for the faint of heart. The recent boom has made it easy to get in over your head like never before.
