Real Estate Sales Should Rebound in 2007
By Cy Yablonsky
The media was hyping
the burst of the “real estate bubble” for a few years before we
saw the actual decline. Although all
real estate markets go at their own pace, 2006 saw a general decline in
real estate value and number of homes sold throughout the United States. Due to many indicators 2007 should see a
stabilization of this decline.
In order to
understand what will be in the future we need understand the past. With a few exceptions real estate value
has been rising since the l950’s.
Since 2000 interests rates were falling rapidly, thus making
financing easier. Combined with a
generally strong economy (the 2001 “recession” notwithstanding)
this created a real estate market where people felt they could buy.
In the Internet Age,
real estate information, like everything else, is disseminated rapidly at
the speed of, well, The Internet.
This meant that as people sold their house slightly higher than the
previous comparable house the next person knew about it that much
faster. Before the Internet, with
free online public records and online MLS’s, it would take time for a
general uptick, or downtick, in the real estate market to disseminate to
the surrounding houses and areas.
Now, with instant access at our fingertips, this real estate information
is gotten easily, and cheaply.
In this instant
information age a volatile real estate market is inevitable. When the perception of a certain type of
market (sellers’ or buyers’) is created and the underlying
components are there (economy and interest rates) then a rapid growth, or
decline, will happen.
That doesn’t
mean that there are only two ways to go, skyrocketing or plummeting. There is a middle ground, and this middle
ground will happen quickly also.
Obviously we can’t tell the future but rapid real estate
stabilization will probably occur in 2007.
The deflating of the
“real estate bubble” occurred because of past rapid market
growth and the fear of the market
bursting. A lot of people declined
to buy a home in 2006 because they thought that if they waited they would
get a better deal. Sellers, who were
accustomed to being in control, didn’t see the real estate decline as
permanent and many decided to wait it out.
Many sellers put their move on hold rather than take a perceived
loss. 2006 saw many expired and
withdrawn real estate listings.
As people who
deferred buying a home for a while see that houses are not plummeting, like
many predicted, they will start coming into the home buying market
again. So the actual stabilization
will also happen swiftly. This is,
in a large part, due to the Internet.
2007 will probably not see a meteoric rise in the real estate market
but it should see stabilization, with a slight uptick possible.

Tip #18
Home Selling Tip, Targeting Out Of State:
When you sell your home you sometimes have to put yourself in the
potential buyers’ shoes. In New Jersey many home buyers are from the
surrounding area, like New York or Pennsylvania.
Knowing this can allow your agent to
market your house more effectively.
If he/she will advertise in a New York publication they can describe
the proximity to NY. This allows
your potential Buyer Base to expand.
