One of the best home price forecasters, CoreLogic, agrees. They are forecasting home prices to rise across the U.S., but at the slower rate of 5.3% over the next year. That is still a larger than average price increase, but it isn\u2019t pricing people out of the market as fast as what we saw last year.<\/p>\n<p>Zooming in to Florida, we saw home prices rise by an average of 5.8% last year. That was slower than the national average, but still significant. CoreLogic is forecasting the rate of price increases in Florida to accelerate to 7.5% over the next twelve months. I tend to be more conservative than that. With higher interest rates and the stock market getting more volatile, I would take the under on CoreLogic\u2019s forecast. I think it\u2019s a safe bet as even CoreLogic sees much of Florida\u2019s properties as overvalued even at today\u2019s prices.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless, we have now seen 75 consecutive months of home price increases on a nationwide basis. The market will correct at some point, but it doesn\u2019t look to be a risk in the near future. In my opinion, it is still a good time to buy in our area.
