After a weak September, the market picked up in October. Based on figures from the Hot Springs Board of Realtors, MLS sales of residential homes were 15% higher versus the same period last year. Low interest rates and an ample supply of inventory fueled the growth. We are still below our year-to-date numbers so far this year, but have closed the gap a little. Below are the YTD numbers.
