Iowa home sales in October rose slightly from the same time last year while the average price fell. President of the Iowa Association of Realtors Carey Jensen says last month home sales totaled over 28-hundred, a point two percent increase from 2008. Jensen says home prices dropped 4.4 percent from last year, indicating more buyer confidence. He says with the extension of the First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit, he expects more improvements within the next six months.
