The National Association of Realtors (NAR) will release its monthly Existing Home Sales data for November on Wednesday, December 20, 2017. The previous edition of the data giving statistics for the month of October revealed that existing-home sales increased in October to their strongest pace since earlier this summer, but continued supply shortages led to fewer closings on an annual basis for the second straight month.
The Existing-Home Sales data measures sales and prices of existing single-family homes for the nation overall, and gives breakdowns for the West, Midwest, South, and Northeast regions of the country. These figures include condos and co-ops, in addition to single-family homes.
