From the Houston Association of Realtors (HAR), home sales were unchanged from a year earlier, with April single-family home sales totaling 6,438. That is the largest one-month sales volume recorded since last August.

The average price of a single-family home increased 7.0 percent year-over-year to $270,505. The median price—the figure at which half the homes sold for more and half for less—rose 5.4 percent to $195,000. Both pricing figures represent record highs for Houston.
