Anxious About Real Estate? 6 Trends Making Housing Worrisome

A survey of 1,250 U.S. adults from Coldwell Banker Real Estate and Parks Associates found 71 percent want “a move-in ready home.”

Now 45 percent of those polled said move-in ready could mean new construction. And new-home sales nationally are at their highest in nearly a decade.

From the article "Anxious About Real Estate? 6 Trends Making Housing Worrisome" by Jonathan Lansner.
