Five Things Driving Rising Home Prices

In today's real estate article, we look at why prices are rising for homes near you.

People are jumping in to take advantage of these ultra low rates coupled with still depressed (although rising) housing prices. 2. The Increased number of Households: It is expected to hit 1 million this year, which in essence is putting a strain on the available inventory.

What this will mean in the upcoming years is …

Brown said the neighbors behind the sign on Hilltop Drive weren’t against the billboard as long as Clear Channel would go …

Should a zoning decision be based on what's there now (a burned-out house 478 feet …   more ›
