Why Texas Homes Didn’t Appreciate Much

Tag: Buying Tips, Handy ArticlesJane @ 8:15 am

A recent BiggerPockets.com article (by Jim Watkins) offers three reasons why Texas never saw appreciation to the same extent that other national markets did.

1. Lack of Union Presence (Cheap labor)
2. New Construction (Older homes have a hard time competing with so many new constructions)
3. No Geographic Limitations (Basically, the whole rule of supply and demand. If the supply keeps coming, the demand won’t be increasing.)
