Until July 2011, the Triangle home sales down 27% in general and in Wake County, the home sales have fallen about 29%. For the same time period, sales in Durham was down only about 18% in 2010 was not large, but not as bad as other areas of the triangle .. “

Kasper also noted signs of growing interest in the area. “Our office is seeing increased buyer activity in recent weeks, and pendings are up to the site we also see an increase in the number of searches performed and the question for the show priced between $ 135,000 and $ 325,000 ..” The awakening of the market or the Weichert Realty Group marketing support to its customers or a combination of both is yet to be determined
