Homeowners see significant equity gains in 2018

Homeowners See Significant Equity Gains In 2018

A home is an investment — and, like any investment, you want it to increase in value over time.

Well, in 2018 homeowners definitely got their wish.

According to the most recent Homeowner Equity Insights Report from CoreLogic, homeowners in the U.S. who currently hold a mortgage (which covers about 63 percent of all properties) saw an equity increase of a whopping $775.2 billion from Q3 2017 to Q4 2018 — an increase of 9.4 percent year over year. On average, homeowners gained an impressive $12,400 in equity in Q3.

Chances are, you have more equity in your home today than you did a year ago. But most experts predict appreciation to slow in 2019. So if you’ve been thinking about making a move, now is a great time to take advantage of your increased equity and sell your home.

TESTIMONIALS

"I can’t say enough about what an outstanding job Russ did for us! We decided to retire to AZ and after touring several areas in the state, we chose the Tucson area. I found Russ online and reached out to him to help us find our retirement neighborhood and home. Russ spent a day showing us all of the different neighborhoods in both Sahuarita and Green Valley that met our requirements and were within our budget. By the end of the day, we had chosen four neighborhoods. Russ then found four homes for sale in our chosen neighborhoods; two in our favorite! The next day, Russ took us to tour the four homes and by the end of the second day, we made an offer. We are relocating from Kentucky and Russ has been there for us every single step of the way. He has been invaluable in making this entire experience smooth and exciting for us! His service after the sale has been equally exemplary!"
- E. W., Sahuarita AZ
"Couldn’t have asked for a better Realtor!! Russ was very friendly and professional, very knowledgeable, great at negotiating and had a great strategy for everything. He kept us up to date and did all the heavy lifting for us. He took the time to find houses that matched our needs, took care of setting up our inspections and handled any issues that came up during the process. Russ made the house buying process smooth and stress free. Really can’t say enough good things about Russ. We had zero complaints. We definitely recommend using Russ as your Realtor. "
- J.M., Tucson AZ
"Russ did an outstanding job with our out-of-state move. He went over and beyond with all the online paper work and E-signing. He even took additional pictures of the home we saw online to help us make up our minds. He’s great at his job and I would recommend him, he’s an outstanding Realtor!!!”"
