Most Affordable Housing Markets 2009

Most Affordable Housing Markets 2009

According to the National Association of Home Builders’/Wells Fargo Housing Opportunity Index (HOI),  a home is affordable if 28% or less of median family income is needed to buy it– that means an  HOI of 72 or better makes the homes in your market affordable.

According to the home affordability index for the second quarter of 2009, the following cities were most affordable.

#1 was  Indianapolis– 95 HOI (meaning 95% of all homes sold were affordable to the area’s median family income). That’s 16 consecutive quarters for this racy town.

Others near the top were:

Youngstown-Warren-Boardman, Ohio-Pa.
Detroit-Livonia-Dearborn, Michigan
Dayton, Ohio
Grand Rapids-Wyoming, Michigan.
These smaller housing markets areas did even better for affordability:

Kokomo, Indiana– 98
Lansing-East Lansing, Michigan
Mansfield, Ohio
Elkhart-Goshen, Indiana
Lima, Ohio; and
Bay City, Michigan.

On August 11, 2009 Macon REIA Proudly Presents Robert Wright as our Featured Speaker on the topic of Probate Investing Probate is one of the most profitable and least understood methods of investing. The probate technique allows investors to assign contracts, use options and seller financing as most of these properties are free and clear which allows great flexibility on the part of the seller. I hope you will join us and Robert as he shares his wealth of knowledge on one of the most interesting facets of real estate investing today. Probate.
