February Deals (but no Sales)

The number of houses going to contract in the towns this blog covers bounced quite a bit in February from the previous month. A lot of Hot Properties found would-be buyers, too, many of them after being on the market for a very long time. Big cuts in the asking price were needed to move most of them, though not all. As far as I can find, not a single Hot Property got all the way to home plate in February, which is unusual.
