How Walk-able is Your Huntsville AL Neighborhood?

Filed under: Huntsville AL Real Estate, Relocation & Huntsville Information — Huntsville Real Estate Expert Mike Manosky

This week I came across a website that is just so neat, I had to share it.  www.WalkScore.com allows you to type in any address, and it will rate the “walk-ability” of that property by calculating its distance to things like the nearest grocery store, movie theater, library, school, park, and pharmacy.

 

We all know that walking is important for our health and, with all of the hype over “going green” lately, we know that walking instead of driving when possible is one way that we can all help to save the environment.  In fact, it is recommended that adults tread 10,000 steps per day

to reap the many benefits of walking.  Why not consider the walk-ability of a neighborhood the next time you are in the market for a new home?  Or, if you’ve recently moved to a new home, check out the walk-ability to various destinations in your new neighborhood.

Near-Term Home Sales to Hold in Modest Range

Filed under: Huntsville AL Real Estate, Real Estate News — Huntsville Real Estate Expert Mike Manosky

Despite all of the media buzz about the so-called “burst of the real estate bubble,” the National Association of REALTORS® is predicting that the real estate market in general will neither rise or fall dramatically in the coming months. 

Lawrence Yun, NAR senior economist, said he isn’t looking for any notable changes in sales activity. “Existing-home sales should be relatively stable over the next few months, holding in a modest range, with some pent-up demand growing from buyers who’ve been on the sidelines,” he said. “Mortgage disruptions will hold back sales over the short term, but long-term fundamentals are favorable. A modest upturn is projected for existing-home sales toward the end of the year, with broader improvement to include the new-home market by the middle of 2008.”

Considering this information and the current market conditions, this is still a great time to consider buying or selling a home.  To learn more about Huntsville AL real estate, please visit my website or call me today at 256-508-0211.
