The graph below shows the number of sales by week for the last 3 years.  As evident from this graph we are moving along at the same pace of sales as 2009.  The reason for the big changes in 2010 can be atrributed to the new mortgage rules that came into affect last year(April) that helped spike the market with buyers rushing to get in before the changes took hold.
