SINGLE-FAMILY home sales in the US rebounded in February, but the gain was concentrated in one region, which could suggest a loss of momentum in the housing market.

The Commerce Department said on Wednesday home sales rose 2 per cent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 512,000 units. January's sales pace was revised up to 502,000 units from the previously reported 494,000 units.
