Home sales

Maybe we've hit bottom.

For the Boston area, which includes Cambridge and Quincy as well as New Hampshire, the median home sale price in the third quarter saw a 10 percent decline — to $373,400 from $414,700 in the third quarter last year. Compared with the second quarter, however, prices increased by roughly 2 percent. The median sales price in the second quarater was $366,100. The median price is where half of the homes sold for more and half sold for less.

My emphasis above.
