Pending Home Sales For May 2009

May Pending Home Sales Are UP 5.7 percent from May 2008- Nationally

Data On Regions Across the Country:
West: UP 2.2 percent
Northeast: UP 3.1 percent
South: DOWN 1.7 percent
Midwest: DOWN 1.3 percent

May Pending Home Sales Are UP 0.1 percent from April 2009-Nationally

This is the fourth consecutive month pending home sales are UP but actual existing home closings were only up 2 months and this may be due to delays in obtaining loans and because some buyers are having more difficulty obtaining loans because of new appraisal standards.
