Middle Tennessee is also leading the rest of the country as well as other regional areas that compete with middle Tennessee for economic development such as Charlotte, NC and Atlanta, GA. Middle Tennessee has only seen a 3.7% depreciation in the value of homes while Charlotte is looking at a 7.2% decrease and Atlanta a 9.0% decrease. This means that people and businesses looking to relocate will see their property values sustain better value if they relocate to the middle Tennessee area.
Another area that helps to determine the health of the real estate market is the absorption rates. This is the rate at which inventory is moving within that particular market. While we are still considerable down from the numbers of 2006 markets, we are seeing a steady increase in the absorption rates.
