Kennewick Real Estate Featured on CNNMoney

Feb 27, 2010 Kennewick Real Estate

Cari has written recently about the Tri-Cities real estate market staying strong in 2010, and I’m sure most real estate pros in the area would agree that we’ve survived better than most places across the country.

But it’s also nice to see the local real estate market recognized by outsiders, too. That happened this week when CNNMoney listed Kennewick at #2 in a feature about “Best recovery bets” in the U.S.

Here’s the ironic thing: There’s really nothing to recover from. As the image above shows, next to “Value Lost Since 2006,” our real estate market has actually gained 5.7%. That’s not recovery; it’s consistent growth and strength. Here are some stats that CNNMoney includes in its piece:

The median income for the metro area is more than $61,000 while home prices, at a median of $172,000, and other expenses remain low. The cost of living is about 27% lower than Seattle. That should keep housing markets on their steady uphill climb.

I trust that’s all accurate, or pretty close to it. But if you need more details about how the market’s going, give Cari a call. Her number’s right below here.
