Optimistic Outlook For The Local Real Estate Market

As the New Year begins, you may be thinking about buying or selling property here in the High Country. You also might be a little concerned with some of the “negative spin” in the real estate market. It is not as bad as you might think.

Local trends don’t always match national trends. A recent article from the Watauga Democrat features Carol Sommer-Isquith, Broker Associate with Advanced Realty. She points out the past and present market activity and her optimistic outlook for the local real estate market.

Some of Carol’s points include:

· A comparison of units sold in 2009 and 2010;
· The effects of increasing bank loan regulations;
· Foreclosures and what they mean for buyers, sellers, banks and appraisers;
· A comparison of cash and conventional loan transactions in 2010;
· How real estate is still a good investment.
