Home Prices Since the Peak

Here is a nice infographic from the folks at Keeping Current Matters, which shows the Peak date and percentage of decline from the top 20 cities in the country. It’s too bad the numbers from Grand Rapids aren’t shown here but it is interesting all the same.

According to a report on MLive, Grand Rapids total property value declined by 15.2 percent from 2007 to 2012 and by 4.8 percent from 2011 to 2012. Adjusted for inflation, its drop in property value from 2007 to 2012 was 23.4 percent. It was 6.7 percent from 2011 to 2012.

Today though, property values are increasing and inventory is low. Particularly in niche markets for example, Grand Rapids Downtown Condos. Here is a recent post illustrating downtown condo sales. If you are thinking of selling, now is a good time.
