grand rapids mi real estate market report: Rockford Michigan Real Estate Market Report Jan - Dec 2009 - 01/12/10 04:42 AM
Current Real Estate Market Report Rockford Michigan ~2009
Current Absorption Rate for Rockford Michigan runs from 9.7 months
for lower end homes under $ 185,000, up to over 3  years for the
very upper end of the Rockford market. 


The lower end of the Rockford  market is moving faster than
higher priced homes for 2009.  With interest rates likely to
rise in 2010 and with buyer tax credits disappearing after
the first quarter, long listing times in Rockford will likely
continue into 2010, with a decrease in prices driven down
by weak buyer demand.
