In the second quarter of 2009 saw a slight increase in the number of transactions for the sale of U.S. homes. In particular, there has been a rise around 3.8% in terms of housing used or second hand.
The explanation for this phenomenon is given by the sharp fall in house prices, which has been around 15%, opening up possibilities for many families to buy their own home.
Despite this, on-year, home sales, has fallen about 2.8% as the sector's recovery will still take time. The housing crisis has hit the U.S. market virulent and economic crisis with the credit crunch makes it very difficult to buy homes.
