DENVER, Jan. 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Ending the year on a positive note, December home sales did not follow the seasonal trend but rose an unexpected 5.7% from sales in November.

Largely due to a lower volume of foreclosures, the number of homes for sale fell for the 18th straight month, and is now 25.7% lower than last year.

Overall, 2011 was marked by home sales and prices that remained within a range, rising and falling in an equal number of months without showing a strong trend in either direction.
