Housing recovery advances as resales hit two-year high

“Home resales rose in August to their highest rate in more than two years and groundbreaking on new homes also climbed, signs that a budding housing market recovery is gaining traction.  That was well above economists’ expectations and the fastest rate since May 2010 when activity was being supported by a home-buyer tax credit.  The U.S. economy has grown at a lackluster pace this year and has struggled to create jobs, but the housing sector is a relative bright spot for the first time since the 2007-09 recession.”
