Sales of existing U.S. homes fell 0.4% in February, while home prices rose at double-digit rates, a trade association report showed.
Sales of previously owned homes declined to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 6.79 million units last month, the National Assn. of Realtors said. That figure includes single-family homes and condominiums.
The national median home price jumped 11% to $191,000 from the same month a year earlier, the report showed.
