Despite an improvement in the other three regions, pending home sales in the South sank — sending the overall national level lower. The drop was again blamed on supply.
May 2018’s Pending Home Sales Index preliminarily was a seasonally adjusted 105.9. Reflected in the index is a large national sample of contract signings.
