Cash <strong>Sales</strong><br />
The number of <strong>Closed</strong> <strong>Sales</strong> during the month in which<br />
buyers exclusively paid in cash<br />
Economists' note : Cash <strong>Sales</strong> can be a useful indicator of the extent to<br />
which investors are participating in the market. Why? Investors are<br />
far more likely to have the funds to purchase a home available up front,<br />
whereas the typical homebuyer requires a mortgage or some other<br />
form of financing. There are, of course, many possible exceptions, so<br />
this statistic should be interpreted with care.<br />
