There were 14 home sales in January 2012 and 25 sales this year, The Warren Group reported.
In Massachusetts, 2,680 homes sold in January 2013, an increase over last year's 2,436 sales. This is the highest January sales volume for single-family homes in Massachusetts since January 2007, when there were 2,953 transactions.
"We ended 2012 on a pretty positive note, and this is carrying into January," said Timothy M. Warren Jr., CEO of The Warren Group. "Recent pending sales data are a hopeful sign for a strong spring market. And given low mortgage rates and steady prices, there are positive signs that 2013 will be a second year of recovery."
