Local Housing Markets Place 1st and 2nd for 2012

The news from HousingPredictor.com is very welcome for those attempting to market their Lawrence KS Homes for Sale. This story tells us that there is hope for the Midwest and specifically the Kansas City and Topeka areas. My hope is that if Kansas City is ranked #1 and Topeka ranked # 2 for the best 2012 housing markets, that Lawrence KS Real Estate for Sale will also feel the positive impact.

It appears as though the strong farming influence has much to do with this forecast. Many are claiming that land values and specifically farm land values have been rising in the past few months. That is welcome news. Buyers looking to invest in something that has lasting and intrinsic value should consider making a move before the prices start heading back up. Homes for Sale Lawrence KS can also be purchased with a very low interest loan.
