Should I rent, or should I buy? People have wrestled with that question ever since they decided that caves were no longer suitable abodes. Depending on when, or where, the question has been posed, the answer is not always the same. Trulia, one of my favorite consumer home search sites, has just released their Q2 [...]

The third builder featured here is Lennar Homes, and the community they are developing is Wellesley, located in Mooresville, NC.

The data shows Charlotte as one of only six cities in the country to post home prices lower than when prices began [...] Was 2010 a year you would like to forget?
