Is Nashville Real Estate Recovering?

Overlooking the River

Is Nashville Real Estate Recovovering? You bet! The market is trending back towards a balanced market. I suspect it will be back on track by 2010. However some areas are already recovering. Trending of Davidson County has gone from in the past 12 months at 9.9 months supply of inventory, and at 6 months to 8.3 and in the last 3 months has dropped to 8.0. These figures are based on single family homes. So inventory is dropping which will usher in a new era for homeowners, builders, agents and perspective homeowners.

So, Nashville Real Estate is recovering and showing healthy signs of improvement. I recently, for instance, I sold a home in Davidson county that had an absortion rate of 3 months supply! There are areas that are doing very well and prices are being fortified by demand already. Something we all have to keep in mind is the simple fact that real estate is local! It always will be and can vary from one side of the tracks to the other. We, I being a Davidson county homeowner included, can be encouraged by the changing market! Home values will start taking a stand when the market balances.

When the market balances, you'll start to hear better news and this will provide optimism back in the housing market so investors will start to be interested again. Homeowners will be encouraged by their sale and will spread the word which will in turn encourage others. According to the National Association of Realtors the market is balanced when we have a housing supply of 5-6 months. When we see these figures fall into position...Nashville Real Estate will Recover. Fortunately, we've not been plagued as badly as other areas so our recovery will take place before them as well. Hats off the Middle Tennessee Real Estate Agents, Appraisers, Lenders and Consumers for keeping our market in check.
