C.A.R. Releases Its 2017 California Housing Market Forecast - Following a dip in home sales in 2016, California’s housing market will post a nominal increase in 2017, as supply shortages and affordability constraints hamper market activity, according to the "2017 California Housing Market Forecast," released last week by C.A.R.
Investors Eye More Real Estate Assets - Could real estate be the hottest trend in investing? While the concept itself isn't new, confidence and intrigue in this investment strategy are high according to recent findings from a national survey of U.S. investors by Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate, which found 89 percent of U.S. investors surveyed are interested in incorporating real estate into their investment strategies. The results also revealed that 80 percent of U.S. investors surveyed believe a real estate portfolio is one of the best financial legacies they could leave for their family, so what could this mean for the real estate industry?
San Jose Shoppers Brace For Sales Tax Increase - Though San Jose now has one of the highest sales tax rates in Santa Clara County at 9%, it’s still relatively low compared to neighboring Alameda County, where sales tax starts at 9.5%. Four cities, including San Leandro, have a 10% tax rate.
The Apple Effect: After Spaceship Campus Lands, Will Silicon Valley Prices Soar? - The median list price for homes within a mile of the new campus saw a whopping 20.5% median price increase over the past year alone—nearly double the 11% increase we saw for the rest of Santa Clara County. And that’s in a market that has seen steady price increases for years already.
