Housing Prices Rising Nationwide -- Get In Before It's Too Late!

The economy is definitely on the mend and home sales – and median home prices – are climbing rapidly nationwide. If you’re thinking about buying a home, either through a conventional sale, or a creative solution such as seller financing or Rent to Own, taking action now is essential.

The national median existing-home price for all housing types was $173,600 in January, up 12.3 percent from January 2012, which is the 11th consecutive month of year-over-year price increases; that last occurred from July 2005 to May 2006. The January gain is the strongest since November 2005 when it was 12.9 percent above a year earlier.

Distressed homes - foreclosures and short sales - accounted for 23 percent of January sales, down from 24 percent in December and 35 percent in January 2012. Fourteen percent of January sales were foreclosures and 9 percent were short sales. Foreclosures sold for an average discount of 20 percent below market value in January, while short sales were discounted 12 percent.
