United States Real Estate on Sale?

April 22, 2013 by Marco Santarelli

Demand for U.S. real estate by foreign investors has exploded over the last year.  The first reason has been the weakness of the U.S. dollar.  That has allowed foreign buyers to invest in U.S. real estate that produces favorably high yields, as well as profiting from the currency trade. These two factors compound to give foreign investors greater returns.

Since 2006 property values in America had declined in many markets by as much as 70%.  Now with the ongoing manipulation tactics of the Federal Reserve Bank, Ben Bernanke’s QE to infinity, and suppressed real estate inventory by the major banks, real estate prices have been rebounding in most U.S. real estate markets.  That explains some of the reasons foreign investors are taking their capital and placing it in U.S. investment properties.

U.S. Population Shifts

April 20, 2013 by Marco Santarelli

People were on the move in 2012 and apparently the most popular place for them to move to was Pittsburgh, PA., according to the 2012 Top US Growth Cities Report recently released by U-Haul International.  The Steel City topped the list of 30 metro areas selected with a 9.04% population growth, based on data collected by U-Haul from over 1.6 million one-way truck rentals during a recent 12 month period.

The cities chosen for the list had more than 5,000 families moving in or out of the area during that time.   “Growth cities were then determined by calculating the percentage of inbound moves vs. outbound moves for each area,” said John Taylor, president of U-Haul International, Inc.   Other cities in the U-Haul top 10 included:

Tennessee Foreclosures Down

April 18, 2013 by Marco Santarelli

In Shelby County, there were 1,030 total foreclosures in the first quarter this year, according to real estate information company Chandler Reports.  That’s down from 1,252 foreclosures during the same period in 2012 – a drop of 17%.  Pull back one year before that, though, and the number of foreclosures had spiked to 1,235 in the first quarter of 2012 compared to 964 in the first quarter of 2011. At this time last year, in other words, the area was in the midst of a 30% gain in foreclosures.  Pointing to the recent drop, some local brokers and Realtors say a combination of forces is at work. There’s been a small improvement in the economy, which helps. Banks also are increasingly pursuing workouts, loan modifications and short sales.

Phoenix is Facing a Housing Shortage

April 15, 2013 by Marco Santarelli

A Phoenix home with 95 bids is just one example of a housing market entering a new and unprecedented phase.  Experts at Arizona State University School of Business say Phoenix is headed for a major housing shortage.

Long gone are the days when Phoenix was riddled with available, well-built single-family homes in the wake of the 2008 housing market bust.

Five years after the crash, the desert metro is facing lagging home construction, predictions of population growth and rising land prices, according to real estate experts with ASU.

The end result could be a significant housing shortage in the near future, experts contend.

Why the "Buy & Hold" Strategy is Best

April 8, 2013 by Marco Santarelli

The Buy and Hold methodology, as it is applicable to property, is and always has been the cause for making more millionaires than any other method.  The main reason is really because it lets you develop equity through appreciation over a period of time.  There are numerous short-term techniques like lease-options, wholesaling, and flipping that can create some cash, but in no way will it improve your long-term net worth.
