According to the Alabama Center for Real Estate at the University of Alabama, 3,409 homes were sold in the state last month. That’s a nearly 9 percent increase over the previous month, but a nearly 26 percent drop from May 2008.

The center reported the Alabama Housing Affordability Index increased more than 15 percent for the first quarter of this year over the same time period last year, due in part to lower interest rates, a slight decrease in median home sale prices and an increase in median income.
