Sales were 4.3 percent below the 6.75 million-unit level in January 2006.

Locally in the Northern Virginia Area home sales were up approximately 10% from January 2006.
What does all this mean? One could speculate that buyers have reached a critical mass. Pent-up demand coupled with new demand from those moving into the area may now be realized in the market. Buyers continue to see tremendous buying opportunities with continued home price decreases and low interest rates.
