In March 2008, Harrisonburg and Rockingham County home sales took a big jump up, to 91 sales, as compared to 51 in February, and 50 in January. 



While it is exciting to see a strong increase in home sales in March 2008, it is also important to realize the larger context:

• We have almost always seen a dramatic jump between February and March sales -- most likely a seasonal effect.
• March 2008 sales, despite having increased over prior months, were lower than four out of the previous five years' March figures.
