Where Are Real Estate Values Going Now?
At the moment (late 2009), it seems that real estate values may have stopped falling finally. Are they headed back up now, or are we in for a period of stable prices that barely move for years? Or are they going to start dropping again? I suspect we are in a slow recovery, but let’s look at some of the things that determine prices. Watch these factors and you can make your own predictions.
Supply
The state of housing supply, like many other factors, is not the same in all parts of the country. Some areas have enough empty homes to meet demand for a long time to come. In other areas the building boom never came, and so the supply is more in line with demand.
In general there is an over-supply in the country still. Watch as that is eaten up and at some point prices may spike upwards, since it will take some time for builders to realize it is safe to build a few homes as speculations again. If you can’t find the statistics you need easily for your area, you can call the local board of realtors and ask how many homes are sold each month.
Belize Real Estate Ideal for International Real Estate Investors
The Belize economy has been sustained mainly by agriculture for several centuries but tourism and construction are also contributing significantly to the economic growth of Belize. The low population density has led to vast tracts of vacant lands and properties that had been underutilized. Hence, the listings that include Belize properties for sale and Belize rentals offer huge opportunities and potentials for local and international real estate investors.
The chief attractions of real estate in this country are the English speaking population, growing economy, and a stable government. Further, the cost of living in this country is quite low and the quality of life is significantly higher than several other countries. Due to the large availability of land and properties, the prices are still low compared to standards of international listings for sale.
Belize is one of best havens for tax shelter options. The country does not impose either capital gains tax or inheritance taxes. Even the property taxes are among the lowest in the world at 1% of the real estate market value for all undeveloped land or properties. Hence, on ,000 land, the property taxes would amount to only 0 per annum.
Real Estate Values – Where To Now?
As I write this (mid 2009) home prices appear to be falling still and, of course, recent experience shows us that they do not always rise from year to year. But not even the most pessimistic analysts think they can keep dropping for too many years. So were are real estate values headed this year and next?That is a difficult question.
For those who paid attention during the “bubble years” it was easy to see that a fall was coming. In fact, in a book I wrote in 2006, I mentioned, “By the time you read this prices of homes are likely going down.” But notice that I said “likely.” It is one thing to see that something is over-valued or that prices are rising at unsustainable rates, but predicting the precise timing of corrections is next to impossible.
That’s true now as well. What we can look at for a clue, though, is the factors that affect the prices. Then, as these change we will be able to see the bottom – and the appreciation that follows – coming.One of the key factors is the rate of foreclosures. So far it just keeps climbing. And when banks take back those houses, they can’t sit on them.
