The Federal Reserve's monetary policies designed to drive
mortgage rates lower are having a positive impact on housing prices. The National Association of Realtors reported March
existing home sales dropped but the average home prices continues to move higher. Another factor driving home prices higher is the low number of homes for available for sale.

March existing-home sales were down 0.6 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.92 million in March from a downwardly revised 4.95 million in February. Although home sales were down month over month, sales were 10.3 percent higher in March 2013 when compared to March 2012.
The national median existing-home price for March was up 11.8 percent compared to a year ago. The increase in March's year over year number is the strongest increase since the height of the housing bubble. Back in November 2005 home prices rose 12.9 percent from a year earlier.
The March 2013 increase in home prices is the 13 consecutive month prices have moved higher, when comparing year-over-year prices. This stretch of price increases is the longest stretch since prices increased between May 2005 to May 2006.
Mortgage rates fell over the past month which has helped the demand for homes as buyers are taking advantage of near record low rates.
