ATTOM Data Solutions has compiled a list of U.S. cities likely to have the most home sales in the third quarter of 2017. MarketWatch reports that Colorado Springs, a city that has been previously rated for its affordability, topped the list.
In some of the nation’s hottest housing markets, there was more interest in counties farther away from jobs but with more affordable homes, said Daren Blomquist, a senior vice president at ATTOM.
Colorado Springs was followed by Chicago, Washington, D.C., Reno, Nev., and Lexington, Ky. Low on the list were pricier markets like San Francisco, Rochester, N.Y., and Honolulu.
