New Home Sales Up 6.6 Percent in September, 2010
New-Home Sales Climb 6.6 Percent in September 2010
Sales of new homes climbed 6.6% in September 2010, figures released by the federal government showed, representing the second straight month of gains, but still well below the pace when a tax credit existed. Sales of new single-family homes rose 6.6% to a seasonally adjusted annualized rate of 307,000, which is stronger than the 300,000 that economists expected in a MarketWatch-compiled poll.
A recent report showed sales of existing homes were also stronger than expected, rising 10%, and the two reports lend support to some economists who believe housing demand hit a bottom in late summer.
"After dropping precipitously following the expiration of the first-time home buyer tax credit, it looks as though new home sales have stabilized," said Nicholas Tenev, an economist at Barclays Capital. "We expect a gradual recovery over the coming months."
Still, the pace of new-home sales is 21.5% below the same level of last year. The pace of new-home sales is also considerably below the 414,000 rate in April, when the market was buoyed by a tax credit that has since expired.
There's also still plenty of supply, with the government estimating supply of eight months of unsold homes, though that's down from 8.6 months in August. The stock of unsold houses fell 1% from August and dropped 19% from Sept. 2009.
"With little new construction going on, inventories of unsold new homes at least aren't a problem even with sales at a depressed level, with the number of new homes for sale extending a run of record lows," said David Greenlaw, an economist at Morgan Stanley.
The median sales price rose 1.5% from August and 3.3% from Sept. 2009 to $223,800-about 30% above the median price of an existing home.
The margin of error for new-home sales is a considerable plus or minus 16.9%.
September's housing market was only partly affected by a foreclosure moratorium of some leading lenders, which gathered pace in October.
New-home sales, by definition, wouldn't be affected by foreclosure disputes and in fact could benefit by virtue of purchasers getting "clean" title when buying new properties.

Destin Beaches Are Not Affected By Oil Spill
Chamber Spreading the Message that Destin Beaches are Open, Fishing is Great
Destin, FL, May 20 - Through social media sites and interviews with regional media outlets, the Destin Area Chamber of Commerce is spreading the news that Destin beaches are open and the fishing is great.
“There is a lot of mass hysteria in the national media,” explained Chamber President and CEO Shane Moody, CCE, IOM, to Greg Sells from Fox’s St. Louis affiliate KTVI, during an interview on the beach on Wednesday, May 19. “There is no oil. There’s no oil in the water. There’s no oil on the beach.”
Moody has also done interviews with the Palm Beach Post, the Fox affiliate in Atlanta, CNN.com, and numerous newspaper and television news agencies throughout Alabama, Georgia, and Louisiana.
After hearing the Destin area discussed on Sirius 123 Sport Nation’s Rivals Radio program, Moody sent an email to the show’s hosts reiterating that the beaches and fishing in Destin are great and inviting them to do a live broadcast from here and then join him for a round of golf and fishing excursion. The email was read on the air during the May 17 show.
The Chamber is also posting photos and videos daily to its Facebook, Twitter, and Flickr sites, which are all linked from its home page at www.DestinChamber.com, and is fielding sometimes 130 or 145 calls per day, mostly from those concerned about oil in the Destin area.
The Chamber encourages those in the Destin area to spread the word to friends and family that our beaches are open and join us on Facebook, Twitter, and Flickr to post your own photos of our beautiful area.
