5 Markets Expected to Fare Best in 2010 – Yahoo! Real Estate

Posted on January 13, 2010

Good news for the Charleston area. Let’s hope it results in more business for everyone!

After a dour year where housing prices fell more than 12% nationwide, will 2010 bring sunnier tidings?

The short answer: only a tad in a select few places but overall not really.

The five areas that Moody’s foresees home prices performing best in 2010 are: Tacoma, Wash., (an increase of 2.44%); Memphis, Tenn., (up 0.99%); Pittsburgh (up 0.89%); Charleston, S.C. (up 0.18%); and Seattle (decline of 0.50%). (These five markets are culled from data on Moody’s Economy.com and based on the largest 100 metro areas.)
