Top TEN Predictions for Residential Real Estate: A Press Release from Dave Liniger to RE/MAX Agents 1/6/2012
This just hit my INBOX from our RE/MAX 100 Broker.
Dave Liniger is the Co Founder of RE/MAX. When he talks, we stop and we listen.
Anyway, I printed it out. I wanted to post some good news on my desk.
I just spent the whole day clearing it and cleaning my desk so these TOP TEN Predictions can perch prominently on it instead of getting lost in a sea of paperwork piles.
Here are the top ten. I see those warranted smiles. Realtors have waited for some of this good news for quite a while.
1. Continued low interest rates.
2. Home prices stabilizing and starting to rise.
3. Increasing numbers of home sales.
4. Rising inventories, mostly due to increased foreclosures.
5. Distressed properties will make up half of all sales.
6. An improved Short Sale Process to help avoid foreclosure.
7. Home ownership rates continue to fall.
8. Foreign and domestic investors will buy 25% of homes.
9. Increasing reliance on Real Estate Agents.
10. Increased use of Mobile and Social Technologies.
There will also be an upcoming 2012 Forecast Video.
But for now, it is just nice to prop this PRESS RELEASE up on my newly cleaned (even if it took ALL DAY) desk and look forward to my best year yet!
