Carmel, Ind. (PRWEB) June 27, 2012
Embittered homeowners looking for good news in the May home sales report were disappointed by the National Association of Realtors? recent finding that home sales fell 1.9% during the month.
But the report did contain a silver lining ? when compared to May 2011, sales were up 9.6%.
Sam Carrillo who is the executive director of The Stratford, a retirement community in Carmel, Ind., says the report is consistent with the experiences of many of the older adults who finance a move into his community through the sale of their home.
?We have noticed a significant increase in traffic this spring as compared to last year at this time,? Carrillo said. ?Overall, we are finding that when a home is staged and priced appropriately, it is selling in a timeframe that is shorter than the national average.?
