The Wall Street Journal is reporting that sales of newly built homes rose in July to their highest level in nearly a decade, a sign of solid momentum in the U.S. housing market.
“New home sales soared again,” said Ralph McLaughlin, economist at real estate website Trulia. “This is a continued sign that demand for new homes remains solid in a low interest rate, low unemployment environment.”
