Reported this morning on a national news channel, only 5% of Americans are either in the market or about to be in the market to buy a home.
This number is very low, but not surprising considering the current economy. The really good info was the demographic as they reported the MAJORITY of that 5% were under the age of 35. The "under 35" category is made up of Gen-X and Y, and they believe the market has bottomed out and now is a great time to pick up good values.
Jacksonville home buyers support the national news report
The majority of homes that I have sold in the past few months were purchased by first time home buyers which supports the national trend as well. Not surprisingly, the homes that were neutral in color, very clean, with well manicured yards sell the fastest!
