SMYRNA, Tenn. - The housing market's lower prices coupled with an $8,000 tax credit are prompting some younger Middle Tennessee to consider buying their first home.

 

For the third straight month, sales of new single family homes have risen.  In June, sales jumped 11%.

The workshop will educate buyers on several important home buying topics inclu...
