Home Prices to Continue Rise at Slowing Pace in 2022

Looking ahead to 2022, where will home prices go?

REAL ESTATE NEWS

Demand for new homes has grown, driving up home prices up to 18% over the last few years. It’s been years since home prices have increased that much. The current expectation is that home prices will continue to rise, but at a much slower pace. Somewhere between 2% and 12% for the coming year, 2022, is what national lenders are projecting. With a ten percent swing in projections, it’s clear there is not a consensus of what the rate of U.S. home price growth will look like in 2022. When discussing home prices, remember that local and national markets and prices vary substantially. Inner city real estate often does the exact opposite of suburban or rural real estate. When the safest suburban neighborhoods shot up during the virus hysteria, urban home prices dropped. Take a look at what the Downtown Los Angeles real estate market is doing recently in the November DTLA Real Estate Market Report.

There’s a consensus in the real estate industry that price growth will continue to decelerate as the current growth rate simply isn’t sustainable long term. One school of thought says that interest rates will start moving back up, which will cool demand for homes. Since rates can’t go much lower, that seems like a safe bet, according to Fortune Magazine. With an expected reduction in demand due to the higher interest rates, inflation caused by fed spending and radical Federal Reserve money printing may be the only forces keeping home prices from falling. Nobody can predict how long this stagflation will last before the inevitable economic recession of the Greater Depression of the 2020s occurs. #entarispowerful #homeprices2022.

Buying a Home with a Solar Electric Power System – Pros and Cons

Solar Power in Southern California Makes Great$ense

Does solar energy increase home value? The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) found that every dollar saved on energy through solar increases home value by $20. That’s a return on investment of 20 to 1. According to the national real estate sources, homes with solar panels sell for approximately 4 percent higher on average than homes without solar energy. A million-dollar home could be worth $40,000 more with a solar power system.

Solar has some down sides: cost can be more than expected, can results in a long-lasting monthly expense if not calculated and negotiated well; roof damage or leaks can occur if not property installed; solar can sometimes look unappealing or unaesthetic; solar can be improperly or inefficiently installed, such as in the shade; solar requires cleaning, maintenance and repairs, especially if it is placed low to the ground.

What happens if you buy a house that has solar panels?

If you’re looking to buy a home with solar panels financed through a solar loan, you don’t need to worry about making additional monthly payments. Unlike a lease, if the previous homeowner installed solar equipment with a solar loan, the loan will always be their liability, even if the property is sold. The seller may try to recoup their loan liability in the sale price of the home. Be smart about the value of the solar power system get a professional third-party estimate.
