What's "Up" with Lawrence, KS Home Sales?

The May 2011 National Association of Realtors (NAR) home sales statistics were released a few days ago. According to Lawrence Yun, the chief economist for NAR, there are several factors that attributed to the decline. Read his article http://www.realtor.org/press_room/news_releases/2011/06/may_decline

When I first read the article, I have to admit, my heart sank as I thought about all the Lawrence, Ks homes for sale and the sellers of those Lawrence, KS homes. I represent several of those sellers who are struggling to sell their Lawrence, KS houses. I have a responsibility to stay informed about what the housing market is doing in order to advise my seller clients on what steps they need to take in order to successfully sell their Lawrence, Kansas Homes. So when I read another article about how Kansas home sales were better than the national sales, I wanted to share it. You can read the article here: http://kansasreporter.org/75190.aspx.

I'm hopeful that Kansas homes sales and more specifically, Lawrence, Ks homes for sale will continue to sell at a stronger pace than some of the other areas in the country.
