In today’s’ day and age and things being what they are in the world and with the foreclosure market and the real estate market, not to mention the economy where it is. The state of Kansas is in a league of it’s own at the moment.
I know, it sounds like a mouthful of hype to get you to travel there but look at the numbers and you will see that I am not lying. Numbers don’t lie and it would be hard to twist these into anything other than what they are. In a world where most things are doing poorly the numbers here are outstanding.
For example, look at the most recent number of homes in foreclosure here. That number has decreased an amazing 22.79%. That is happening while the rest of the country is for the most part seeing double digit increases. Then sit down for a moment and look at the average price of homes in foreclosure. I hope your state is not one of the poor performing ones but homes and properties here have increased in value and sales price by an astonishing 30.51%.
At a time when most other states are decreasing in value by a few points or increasing by a few points, one that is increasing in mid double digits considering what is going on here in this country is hard to believe. But the numbers are legit and right in plain sight for anyone to see.
The factor that is most affecting these numbers is the government tax credit, which was due to end on November 30 of this year. People in the state of Kansas and people that were looking to purchase in the state of Kansas rushed to make purchases while the offer to add savings on their taxes was still good.
