Housing economist Tom Lawler expects the NAR to report sales of 4.23 million SAAR for March.

In March, sales in these markets were down 9.7% YoY. In February, these same markets were up 1.6% year-over-year Not Seasonally Adjusted (NSA).

More local markets will release data after the NAR release tomorrow!
