A new report suggests several elements of the homebuying market stabilized during the final week of October, though home sales remained down about one-third for the month compared to last year.
The report, from redfin.com, points to a handful of measures that suggest the housing market is ticking up following a disastrous few months as mortgage rates skyrocketed.
