How Much Will NGIC Affect Charlottesville Real Estate?

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Jonathan Kauffmann, Principal Broker of Nest Realty

As we all know, the National Ground Intelligence Center is bringing a lot of jobs to Charlottesville and Albemarle County – some are estimating 1000…and maybe even more. With those jobs is increased promise that the influx of jobs will help boost the Charlottesville real estate market.  Is that a crazy thought?  I don't think so.

Real estate pricing can be traced back to supply and demand.  In 2004, the supply of Charlottesville homes was low and demand was high…so prices skyrocketed.  We’re in a situation now where the tables are reversed: inventory levels for Charlottesville and Albemarle homes are extremely high and demand is, well, so-so.
