Oregon In Top Single-Family Housing Markets! Team Thayer #RealEstate #housing #market #investor #news #oregon

Rising home prices, home appreciation, favorable affordability, and excellent economic and demographic conditions have set the stage for the top single-family housing markets in the U.S for investors.
Using current and forecasted housing fundamentals,Ten-X (formerly Auction.com) reported in its Top Single-Family Housing Markets Report for Spring 2016 released on Thursday that among the 50 largest U.S. markets, the top five single-family housing markets in the country are Seattle, Portland, Nashville, Palm Beach County, and Fort Lauderdale.
According to Ten-X, Seattle has been at the top of this list for three consecutive reports, while Portland once again claimed the second-place spot.  In Florida markets, Fort Lauderdale went from second to fifth on the list and Palm Beach County moved up to fourth place. Meanwhile, Nashville ranked third and marks its return to the top five for the first time in a year.
“We're continuing to see a return to fundamentals driving the housing market, as cities with above average population growth and job creation are recovering much more rapidly,” said Ten-X EVP Rick Sharga. “The solid tech sector has helped cities like Seattle and Portland maintain strong economic growth, which in turn has helped fuel the housing market, and the Florida housing market continues its post-recession recovery with South and Central Florida cities experiencing explosive growth.”

“Despite a few economic headwinds, the U.S. housing market remains on solid ground,” said Ten-X Chief Economist Peter Muoio. “There are still some causes for concern, such as affordability and limited inventory, plus mortgage availability is still tight. But overall home sales should continue to prosper on the strength of fundamentals. Wages have gone up, interest rates are still low, and the labor market is healthy.”

The top 5 mistakes people make selling their homes. Team Thayer Official Oregon Real Estate News.

5 home selling mistakes with Team Thayer 1. Trying to sell your home yourself In this DIY era, the urge to try to sell your home yourself to save money can beckon like the smell of oven-fresh cookies at an open house. Resist.  Working with a licensed agent  helps ensure you’re not leaving money on the table as a result of an off-target listing price or a mistake in the many steps that lead to a final sale. Sell your sofa yourself online. List your home with a professional. 2. Picking the wrong Realtor Not all agents are equal. Just because your college buddy dabbles in the industry doesn't mean he’s the best guy to sell your home. You want experience. You want to  work with an agent  who has a depth of knowledge. Invite your buddy to the house-warming party.  Find an agent  who can truly perform. Do you research.  Top Home Sales Mistakes 3. Pricing your home too high Sometimes it’s good to aim high.

Best Types of Gravel for Driveways #landscape #Oregon

There are four materials commonly used for driveways – gravel, asphalt, concrete and pavers. Which one you choose will be based on your budget, your climate and conditions and the length of your driveway. Gravel driveways are hands-down the most affordable option upfront. Asphalt driveways place second in cost, followed by cement and pavers. Although gravel driveways are the least expensive initially, they require the most maintenance long-term. Annual maintenance includes an herbicide application and raking. You’ll need to add more gravel every two to four years, especially if you live in a snowy area or have a sloped driveway. The act of snow removal scrapes up a lot of gravel and deposits it on the sides of the road. You must rake the gravel annually to push it back in place. If you’re willing to keep up with the maintenance, though, gravel is an affordable, durable material and makes an attractive driveway. Below, you’ll find everything you need to know about buying an
