Gas Prices Causing Home Values to Drop

by Steve

The Associated Press ran an article yesterday saying the rising gasoline prices are causing people to reconsider their home buying choices...
Gas prices, which have shot up $1.07 this year, are magnifying demographic trends that show more younger buyers and empty-nest seniors are moving back to urban centers. If gas prices continue their ascent, this could have profound consequences over time on the future development of American cities and suburbs and modes of transportation.

The article goes on to illustrate some workers passing up that house in the suburbs to live downtown, closer to their jobs. Others are finding homes and jobs located right next to train stations.

As gasoline continues to rise higher, will it cause Menifee property values to decline further?

Ted Wegener, a real estate appraiser specializing in Sun City, has published some new information on his website showing the average value of a home in Sun City Core is about $145.00 per square foot as of May 2007.

This figure is down about $20.00 per square foot from a year ago...
HERE IS A TREND ANALYSIS OF PRICE PER SQFT IN THE SUN CITY CORE. PRICE PER SQFT ANALYSIS IS OFTEN USED BY REALTORS IN PRICING PROPERTY. IF THERE WAS ANY DOUBT ABOUT DECLINING VALUES IN SUN CITY THIS SHOULD RESOLVE IT. THE ANALYSIS IS FOR THE PERIOD 5/01/2006 THRU 5/31/2007. AS YOU CAN SEE PRICES ARE DOWN APPROX. $20 PSF IN THE LAST YEAR. THATS $20,000 ON A 1000 SQFT HOUSE. IN THE CORE THERE ARE CURRENTLY (6/14/2007) 123 HOMES FOR SALE. IN MAY THERE WAS 22 SALES WHICH IS .70 SALES PER DAY. IT WOULD TAKE 6 MONTHS TO DISPOSE OF THE STANDING INVENTORY.
You can see a graph of his findings on his website...
