Anian Tunney, Piedmont CA Real Estate Agent comments on homeownership rate decline as reported by the US Census Bureau

The leading real estate news website housingwire.com, reports on the recent US Census Bureau report that the homeownership rate in the United States has gone down to 63.4 percent. It has not been this low since 1967.

“What’s interesting about this statistic,” comments Anian Tunney, Piedmont CA real estate agent, “is that the rate of household formations is increasing, the job market is greatly improved and foreclosure rates are dropping. As first time home buyers are able to enter the market, we should see this homeownership rate as a low from which the market will rise.” One Piedmont CA home for sale is 210 Hillside Avenue, offered at $2,695,000.

“Buyer demand is very high right now, making it a great time to list your home for sale. We are seeing multiple offers, including all cash, and quick escrow closes,” Anian says. She goes on to note that this high demand is causing a rise in prices, which does make it more difficult, but not impossible, for first time home buyers to enter the market. There are many programs making it easier for first time home buyers, such as lower costs for mortgage insurance, and lower requirements for down payments. Another Piedmont CA home for sale is 3 Richardson way, offered at $2,575,000.
