Charlotte New Homes

It is incredible and exciting to see so many builders in the greater Charlotte Real Estate market constructing new homes.  I was with a client yesterday doing their final walk through at a new home in The Palisades.  There are at least six homes within the subdivision under construction!

In the Ballantyne area, Ballanmoor is thriving along with many in Union County including Lawson and Bromley!  Home prices are on the rise.  Charlotte area New homes are being constructed with an abundance of new features such as more protective electrical circuits along with greater energy efficiencies.

There are incredible homes and the prices are still very reasonable in our market.  If you are still hesitating that new home purchase, you will want to make your move.  Mortgage interest rates are on the rise; the increase will make that dream home just beyond your reach with a higher payment.

Charlotte Foreclosure Update Jan 2013

As the economy continues to move along, the Charlotte Foreclosure market continues selling at a strong pace.  For January 2013, a total of 1915 single family homes sold.  Of those, there were a total of 526 foreclosure homes sold. 

So how does this compare?  Total sales increased 25% in January 2013 compared to January 2012.  The total foreclosure sales decreased from our 2012 peak in January of last year of 19% to 27% in 2013.  As long as the sales continue to grow, the market will absorb all of the foreclosures. 

Yes, there is still an abundance of opportunity in Charlotte Foreclosures but at this pace of sales, it is only a matter of time until the Charlotte Real Estate market has a full recovery.

If you have been waiting for the bottom of the Charlotte Real Estate market, it looks like you waited too long!  There are still opportunities but be prepared for multiple offers on aggressively priced foreclosure homes.
