As spring comes into bloom, the real estate world typically sees its busiest season, and 2022 is no exception. As of April 12, local homes under contract rose to 921, which was up from 809 just last month.*
With nearly 1/3 of current home buyers in the U.S. seeking to relocate to a more affordable region, (National Association of Realtors, 2.23.22), this spring season is shaping up to be yet another full real estate season.
The slow rise in inventory, plus more people planning to move this year could be another reason to consider putting your home on the market. Not to mention, Tennessee continues to be a top spot for said relocators.
In 2021, Tennessee placed in the top three U-Haul’s top 50 states for growth analysis. Chattanooga has also made the rankings of several U.S. News listings including:
- 49 in Best Places to Live in the US
- 27 in Best Places to Retire in US
- 3 in Best Places to Live in Tennessee
Additionally, Georgia remains one of the fastest-growing states in the U.S. and on the radar for many looking to make a move. “With a 10-year growth rate of 14.4%, Georgia’s state growth is more than 1.5 times that of the U.S. population growth rate. The state will add more people in the years to come; population projections forecast a 17.7% increase in Georgia’s population by 2030.” Bankrate.com
