Austin Area Market Statistics - April 2010 - Tax Credits Drive Pending, Closed Sales Here's a quick review of the Austin MLS area market statistics for April 2010. The most striking number here is the increase in year to year pending sales. April 2010 saw a drastic rise - over 65% - compared to April one year ago. This is without question related to the expiration of the first time home buyer and existing home buyer tax credits. The tax credits expired on April 30. The month also saw a strong closing rate with over 2,000 homes closing, a 21% increase. (0 comments)
