Sales of new homes edged down 0. 3 percent in October from September, but were a healthy 17. 2 percent above the pace of October 2011, the Census Bureau and Department of Housing and Urban Development report. It's another in a recent series of reports that signal the housing sector is on the mend. But, as Bloomberg News says, the improvement has been somewhat uneven. According to the agencies, new homes sold at an annual rate of 368,000 last month. One thing to keep in mind: Superstorm Sandy struck just as the month was ending and that may have affected the sales pace.
