May 2014 home sales, contracts signed, were up 6.1% from the prior month but prices eased a bit nationally according to data reported by the National Association of Realtors.
So home homes were up month over month but as compared to homes sales in May of 2013 sales were down 5.2%.
Recently a sellers of ours pointed out a mistake on the description of his property and it was with the # of bathrooms the home had. The listing real estate agent correctly entered the information into our mls system, 2.5 baths but when the data was distributed to other web sites it was posted as 3 bathrooms totaling up the 2 full baths and the 1 half bath. But is 2 and a half bathrooms a proper description of what the property offers?
