Looking at the Future of Louisville real estate is much like trying to guess what your chess opponent might do next.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Predicting the future is always a tricky task but there are some very bright minds at the National Association of Realtors (NAR) who make it their job to study the data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, this data isn’t specific to Louisville, KY but we can still learn a few things from it. Here are some of the high points from a recently published NAR article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

National: Existing Homes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
 <\/td>2008<\/strong><\/td>2009<\/strong><\/td>2010*<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
Home Sales (millions)<\/strong><\/td>4,913<\/td>5,011<\/td>5,594<\/td><\/tr>
Home Prices<\/strong><\/td>$198,100<\/td>$172,600<\/td>$178,800<\/td><\/tr>
Change (in price)<\/strong><\/td>-9.5%<\/td>-12.9%<\/td>3.6%<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

National: New Homes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
 <\/td>2008<\/strong><\/td>2009<\/strong><\/td>2010*<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
Home Sales<\/strong><\/td>485,000<\/td>397,000<\/td>549,000<\/td><\/tr>
Home Prices<\/strong><\/td>$232,100<\/td>$211,100<\/td>$219,000<\/td><\/tr>
Change (in price)<\/strong><\/td>-6.4%<\/td>-9.0%<\/td>4.2%<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>
Projected<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

These national numbers are interesting but don’t translate well for Louisville real estate. Let’s look at data from the Louisville MLS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Louisville Kentucky: All Homes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
 <\/td>2008<\/strong><\/td>2009<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
Total Home Sales<\/strong><\/td>11,369<\/td>11,651<\/td><\/tr>
Average Price<\/strong><\/td>$165,746<\/td>$158,337<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

So from 2008 to 2009, the total of all home sales went up 2.5%<\/strong>, while prices dropped 4.5%<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we use National projections for 2010, which I don’t necessarily recommend but it’s a fun exercise, then Louisville should have approximately 13,002 sales and average prices would rise to $164,037 for our market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
