The good news for home buyers is that your investment in a Knoxville home is likely to continue to appreciate in value. 1st qtr 2007 average price for a 3 bedroom home was $165,400 compared to $156,900 in 1st qtr 2006 and $146,200 in the same time period for 2005.
Further proof positive that Knoxville is not experiencing any sort of housing bubble and prices continue to escalate modestly as sales stay relatively static.
If you’re thinking of buying a Knoxville area home NOW is a great time. The benchmark 30 year fixed rate mortgages are just under 6% and there is a great selection of homes for sale. But like the figures show, don’t wait too long or your dream home could cost thousands of dollars more than you can buy for today.
