Sales of existing homes rose in The United States<\/strong><\/span> Last February, the figure exceeded expectations.<\/p>\n

According to data from the National Association of Realtors, the number of pending home sales rose last month by 14.5% on a monthly basis to an annualized rate of 4.58 million homes, after falling by 0.7% in January to an annualized rate of 4 million homes. Analysts had expected sales to rise to an annualized rate of 4.17 million homes.<\/p>\n

The rise in sales came after a 12-month streak of declines, but sales are still 22.6% lower than in February of last year.<\/p>\n

The time it takes to sell a residential unit has also increased since it was first listed on the market, prompting some sellers to accept lower prices. This could help alleviate the challenges caused by the rapid rise in U.S. interest rates.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the average home price in the United States rose by only 0.5% last month compared with the same month last year, reaching $363,000, up from $361,120 in January.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
