Existing home sales rose again in September.  Those sales included single-family, townhomes, condos and co-ops which jumped 10% in September.  Not only have existing homes sales increased, but according to Freddie Mac, the national average interest rate for a 30 year conventional mortgage fell to a record low of 4.35% in September, from 4.43% in August.  In comparison 2009 featured 5.6% rates.
