Real Estate Forecast for 2012! Trying Again!

 Real Estate Forecast for 2012! 

This is a re-post.  I was disappointed by the limited response to my original post.  I am assuming that since it was posted December 29th, many were still more into the holidays than getting into the swing of a new year.  So here goes:

Ok, I have an idea.  We can listen to the "negative news sells", crowd or we can weigh in ourselves.


So this will be an informal poll of Active Rainers (non real estate professionals too please!) on what they think 2012 will bring!

I would like to know:

1.      Did your local sales increase in 2011?

2.      Did prices increase or decrease and by how much?

·         0-5%

·         0-10%

·         10+%

3.      Will sales increase or decrease in 2012?

4.      Will prices increase or decrease for 2012 and how much?

·         0-5%

·         0-10%

·         10+%

 5.      Lastly, leave your city/region and state.

If I get enough responses I will "compile" the results and post in a future post!  Maybe even do a follow up survey this time next year to see if we can beat the "negative news" prognosticators.

My response (copy and paste in your comment if you'd like and just change to your data):

1.      Sales increased slightly

2.      Prices decreased ~10%

3.      Sales will increase in 2012

4.      Prices will increase 0-10%

Hi Bob,

As I have been saying for some time now.

I think the housing market will improve in 2012. Sales will increase and we will see an almost disappearance of the recession deflation of prices.

I am in inspecting. But I can see the trend already.

Have a great day.

Best, Clint McKie

Hi Bob I followed Rebecca over and here we are experiencing less than steller sales ( about what they were in 97) prices are still dropping about 3% a year vs the 18 to 36% of the past few years. Builders have all bu tdried up I think other than the custom builders there is only one tract builder left out of about 7 in the hey day.
