Anian Tunney Piedmont CA Real Estate Agent Broker Comments on 2014 California Housing Market Forecast

Anian Tunney, a real estate agent broker in Piedmont, CA, commented today on the California Association of Realtors® (CAR) 2014 California Housing Market Forecast(1) released early last week. Tunney noted that 2014 looks to more than make up for the dip in single family home sales experienced in 2013. CAR credits, and Tunney agrees, the combination of the improving economy, increasing home values, and continued historically low interest rates for the positive forecast. Current single family houses for sale in Piedmont include 179 Estates Drive, offered at $3,495,000.

Tunney also took interest in the forecasted increase in the median price for Californian single family homes. With a 28% increase in 2013, from $319,300 to $408,600, the 6% increase forecasted for 2014 seems meager. However, as Tunney commented, investors are leaving real estate and fewer primary home owners are in distress – making selling and purchasing a new home financially feasible. This results in a larger housing inventory and reduces the need to out-bid other purchasers. An example of existing homes for sale in Piedmont includes 150 Requa Road, currently offered at $7,400,000.
