“There are fewer affordable housing options than just a few years ago.”
The local (Knoxville area) real estate website we’ve used for years has changed a lot. When we started looking seriously, the total number of single-family properties for sale showed up as over 22,000. That was in 2010. Now when we log in it’s down to 8,000. That’s before drilling down with the criteria that you want. Basically, there are zero properties that fit our criteria — cost, square footage, cities, etc. — when we used to get query results of around 50.
I read here and there that not too far in the future we will have economic crash with the price of land/housing dropping....I am going to be ready for that...
