home sales

Americans ramped up purchases of new homes in October after three months of soft sales, evidence that the housing recovery is improving fitfully.

While real estate sales across the country are predicted to remain only steady next year, New Jersey sales are way up.

A new report indicates it's a sellers market for homes in New Jersey right now.

When it comes to homes sold in New Jersey, about 45 percent were cash sales in July, up from 36 percent a year ago and above the nationwide average of 40 percent.

Americans cut back sharply in July on their purchases of new homes, a sign that higher mortgage rates may weigh on the housing recovery.

U.S. developers broke ground on homes at a faster pace in July. But the rise was all due to apartment construction, which is typically volatile. By contrast, builders began work on fewer single-family homes -- the bulk of the market -- and sought fewer permits to build them.

New Jersey home prices are on the rise.

College graduation and 18th birthdays aren't excuses for children to move out anymore; in fact, more twenty-somethings are staying at home while they figure things out.

U.S. home prices surged 11.9 percent in June from a year earlier, reflecting stronger demand amid a tight supply of homes for sale.

Housing prices in the U.S. have been increasing by double digits recently, but a new analysis shows prices have been slower to rise in New Jersey, and the overall price increases will begin to cool down.
