BROOKLYN homes sold at the quickest pace in at least eight years in the third quarter, extending a surge in demand in New York's outer boroughs that has sent prices soaring to records.

It took 55 days on average for a Brooklyn home to sell, the fastest in data going back to 2007, according to a report Thursday from appraiser Miller Samuel Inc and brokerage Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
