Total home sales to date in craven County are 416 as compared to 384 in 2009. Again we are moving in the right direction but it will be a while before we are able to see how much of this was the result of the tax credit.
Of the homes 416 homes sold, 108 were new construction as compared to 113 in 2009.

Good News- New Bern Home Sales
Good news, at least for the month of April. Of course we do not know how much effect the tax credit had on sales. But I don’t know about you but I will take any good news.
For all of Craven County, April home sales
April 2009=58
April 2010=74
New Home sales
April 2009=19
April 2010=32
For the first quarter year over year sales seem to indicate we might have hit the bottom and maybe we are on a slow rebound up. Hang in there.
