Springfield is being named the hottest housing market in the country for the fifth-straight month.
Realtor-dot-com says the housing market in Springfield is attracting three-times more buyers than the national average, and homes are sold about a month faster.
However the red-hot market has led to higher costs, with housing prices increasing by more than four-percent over the past month.
The median price in the area is 444 thousand dollars.
