The Home Guru's Crystal Ball for 2014 Housing Predictions
In the real estate world, 2013 was quite a year to observe and ponder, wasn’t it? Quite unlike any other in recent history. Considering that it was clawing its way back from the doldrums of the worst economic recession since the Great Depression, it had a lot of catch-up to do and, while uneven, it rose to the occasion.
Prices rose an average of five percent nationwide and in some tony pockets of Westchester, as much as 20 percent. Instrumental in the price increase was the low inventory compared with the number of buyers in the market competing against each other in bidding wars, unheard of during the recession. And mortgage rates remained at historic lows.
Much of that is about to change according to the pundits whose expertise The Home Guru culls from his crystal ball to present a list of housing predictions for 2014 – the good, the bad and middling – as follows here.
