According to a study conducted by the American Association of Realtors, from July 2009 to June 2010, about half of housing transactions accounted for those who buy a house for the first time. This ratio is a record high in the history of such studies, since 1981. In the course of the study by the Association were surveyed about 8500 people across the country who have bought a house in this period. On this Site: http://www.inman.com
