Hot off the press from the Wall Street Journal this week.…Home sales are up as prices get more realistic!

Existing-home sales climbed for the first time in seven months during February as buyers took advantage of sharply falling prices.

Home resales rose to a 5.03 million annual rate, a 2.9% increase from January’s unrevised 4.89 million annual pace, the National Association of Realtors said Monday. The last time sales increased was July.

Sales year over year were down 24% from February 2007.
