downtown new homes: Is the Real Estate Market Finally Getting Back to Normal? - 12/30/21 11:11 PM
The housing market has been anything but normal for the last eleven years. In a normal real estate market, home prices appreciate 3.7% annually. Below, however, are the price swings since 2007 according to the latest Home Price Expectation Survey:
After the bubble burst in June 2007, values depreciated 6.1% annually until February 2012. From March 2012 to today, the market has been recovering with values appreciating 6.2% annually.
These wild swings in values were caused by abnormal ratios between the available supply of inventory and buyer demand in the market. In a normal market, there would be a 6-month supply of housing inventory.

downtown new homes: Sellers Have Incredible Leverage in Today’s Market - 11/02/21 12:30 PM
What Does This Mean for Sellers Today?With buyers eager to purchase but so few homes available, sellers who list their houses this fall have a tremendous advantage – also known as leverage – when negotiating with buyers.

What Is ‘Goblincore’: A Dark, Disturbing Home Trend Just in Time for Halloween
With Halloween just around the corner, it seems all too fitting that the latest decor craze celebrates all things creepy: “goblincore.”
So what is goblincore, exactly? Think flowers in a vase, but the blooms are dried up and dead. Decor motifs hail from nature’s underbelly, such as snails, moss, bones, tarot cards, and mushrooms. (Apparently, goblins and their elf brethren dwell under spongy fungi.)
A goblincore homeowner also feels that gastropods (snails, slugs) are unsung heroes, deserving a front-and-center place on the walls and as figurines on sideboards. Ditto … (2 comments)

Are We About to Enter a Buyers’ Market?
 
Home sales are below last year’s levels, home values are appreciating at a slower pace, and there are reports showing purchasing demand softening. This has some thinking we may be entering a buyers’ market after sellers have had the upper hand for the past several years. Is this really happening?
