Market Conditions

It may be a buyer"s market in Raleigh, North Carolina, but are prices on the rise? Real estate expert Randy Scherr thinks so. He reports that prices are on a moderate rise and reports to Realty Times, "General market indicators have been steadily climbing for the last 5 years. In 2007 we saw continued appreciation, but it slowed to about 1 to 1.5% by late in the year." He also noted that higher prices homes are not moving quickly. Moderately prices homes are seeing an average of 82 days on market. Expert Rochelle McCoy-Wells disagrees about the rising prices. She notes, "Although it is still a great time to buy, sellers in the Triangle area are feeling the housing crunch." But sellers, don"t despair. A strong economy can lead to strong sales. And Forbes magazine voted Raleigh number 1 this year for "Top 200 Best Places For Business And Careers." Click here to view current Market Conditions in your location.

Ask Realty Times
Question: I have a piece of land that I bought two years ago, and the developer recently dumped his remaining lots at about 40 percent of the price I paid. Can he do this? If I want to refinance to get better terms for my loan, will a lender use my purchase price or will the current comps? I won"t be able to refinance on the basis of the property"s current value.
