SANTA CLARA, Calif.,
Dec. 7, 2020 /PRNewswire/
-- Millennial homebuyers, relative affordability, and strong
local economies will drive realtor.com®'s Top Markets of
2021 to lead the nation in a year when real estate is expected to
be strong coast to coast. This year's list in rank order includes:
Sacramento, Calif., San Jose, Calif., Charlotte, N.C., Boise, Idaho, Seattle, Phoenix, Harrisburg,
Pa., Oxnard, Calif.,
Denver, and Riverside, Calif. (see below for full 100
market ranking).
Based on realtor.com®'s local market forecast, the
areas on this list are expected to see the strongest home price and
sales growth in the U.S. in 2021. In fact, home prices across the
top 10 markets are forecasted to increase by 6.9% and sales by
13.1% year-over-year, which is significantly higher than the
national projection of 5.7% price appreciation and 7.0% sales
growth.
"This past year, we've all become more reliant on technology to
work, learn, and maintain personal connections. The technology hubs
that make this possible are thriving, as are their housing
markets," said realtor.com®'s Chief Economist,
Danielle Hale. "Additionally, the
relative stability of government jobs in the past year has driven
home prices and sales in several state capitals to the top. Home
buyers, particularly younger first-time buyers, looking in one of
these markets should expect rising prices and heavy competition.
Meanwhile, sellers will remain in a position of power, but will
find themselves on the other side of the bargaining table when
buying their next home."
Tech Titans
A common driver of this year's top markets
is the prevalence of high paying tech jobs. Tech salaries in
Sacramento, San Jose, Boise, Denver, and Seattle have driven home prices through the
roof over the last several years and this trend is expected to
continue in 2021. Additionally, areas such as Charlotte and Phoenix are quickly establishing themselves as
rising tech hubs with a plethora of jobs in technology, as well as
education, government and healthcare. In fact, the projected
unemployment rate for 2021's top markets is 7.9% compared to the
national average of 8.2%. Tech-related jobs make up an average of
8.7% of the workforce in this year's top markets list compared to
6.4% of the U.S. as a whole.
Relative Affordability
Home prices in eight of the top 10 markets are more expensive than
the average of the top 100 markets. But many are relatively
affordable when compared to their nearby counterparts or offer
significantly more square footage for a similar price. For example,
buyers priced out of New York
($216 per sq.ft.) can find increased
space and affordability in Harrisburg ($122
per sq.ft.), while buyers in Sacramento ($284
per sq.ft.) can get more bang for their buck than nearby
San Francisco ($679 per sq.ft.). This is also true when
comparing Oxnard ($413 per sq.ft.) and Riverside ($247
per sq.ft.) with Los Angeles
($556 per sq.ft.).
Millennial Magnets
On average, the top 10 markets
have a larger share of millennials (14.1%) than the U.S. as a whole
(13.5%). A market's ability to lure millennials is a good indicator
of the livability of the area including: job opportunities, dining,
and entertainment. However, when it comes to millennials purchasing
homes in the top 10, two trends are emerging. In half of this
year's top markets, including: Charlotte, Boise, Phoenix, Harrisburg and Riverside, millennials are already homeowners
and expected to make the majority of the home purchases that drive
home price growth and sales. In the other group of markets, such as
San Jose, Seattle, and Denver, the high cost of living has made
homeownership a difficult accomplishment, not only for millennials
but for all generations. The high number of millennials in the
market shows how popular these markets have become, but older, more
financially established generations will be the ones purchasing the
majority of the homes next year.
State Capitals
Half of the top markets are state
capitals, including: Sacramento,
Boise, Phoenix, Harrisburg and Denver. The strong government presence in
these areas offers stability for their local economy and jobs
markets. This is especially important after a year when a global
pandemic has significantly disrupted local economies across the
nation. On top of the government jobs, these areas also have strong
job diversity in both the public and private sectors, including
education, healthcare, technology, manufacturing and military,
which is positioning them for solid growth in the future. The
average GDP growth rate for the top markets is forecasted to be
5.34% in 2021, versus 4.85% for the top 100 metros.

Sacramento takes first place on
this year's top markets list. Due to the increased freedom to work
remotely, buyers from the San Francisco
Bay Area are flocking to California's state capital for the increased
affordability, without having to completely uproot their lives in
Northern California. The area
draws a diverse crowd ranging from first time homebuyers to empty
nesters looking to downsize. Many young families are also drawn to
Sacramento for the area's strong
school system, including West Campus high school which has a 99%
graduation rate and received a 10/10 on greatschools.org. When
residents want a change of scenery, it's a short trip to Lake
Tahoe, wine country or San
Francisco.

Also located in Northern
California, San Jose is the
largest city in Silicon Valley. Apple, Google, Facebook, Linkedin
and even realtor.com® are all within commuting distance
of San Jose. Unsurprisingly, the
area's strong economy and top notch school system, including
Lynbrook High School (10/10 greatschools.org), lure top tech talent
from all over the country. Those looking for a change of scenery
can easily drive to San Francisco
or the nearby mountains. Without a ton of room for new
construction, inventory in the area is tight, so serious buyers
should expect to pay above asking price.

Rounding out the top three on this year's top markets list is
Charlotte. The area's high quality
of life, great weather, strong school system including Providence
High (10/10 greatschools.org) and rich history draw a diverse mix
of both young and old buyers. Millennials are beginning to
transition from the downtown city center toward the suburbs as they
raise families and take advantage of the increased affordability
and extra space. With access to both the beach and mountains,
Charlotte has something for
everyone, including kayaking along the Catawba River and hiking the
Carolina Thread Trail. Housing supply has been tight, but new
construction is booming as builders try to meet current demand.
Charlotte was No. 7 on 2018's top
markets list.

Idaho's capital city is firmly
establishing itself as a rising tech hub in the U.S. The area's
high quality of life and strong economy draw people from all over
the country, with the biggest influx coming from Washington, Oregon and California. This trend has accelerated as the
ability to work remotely has drawn many young workers looking for a
slower pace of life, increased affordability, and access to the
area's many outdoor amenities. Boise offers residents a mild four season
climate, a vibrant revitalized downtown with plenty of
entertainment, as well as a plethora of restaurants and boutique
shopping. Outdoor enthusiasts are drawn to the area's adrenaline
pumping outdoor activities such as white water rafting and four
different ski resorts. New construction has been booming in
Boise over the past few years as
builders scramble to keep up with rising demand. Boise is no stranger to
realtor.com®'s Top Markets list, it was No. 1 in 2020
and No. 8 in 2019.
5.

Coming in fifth is Seattle,
which is home to some of America's largest and most well known
companies including: Amazon, Starbucks, Costco, Microsoft and
Nordstrom. The area's booming tech scene, high quality of life, and
access to both the water and mountains draws a crowd from all over
the country. New and growing families will find a strong school
system, including Greenwood Elementary School which scored a
perfect 10/10 on greatschools.org, as well as four other schools
which received scores of 9/10. Driven by high home prices and the
desire for more space, buyers are beginning to search for homes
further from the downtown center. This is especially true for first
time homebuyers.

Arizona's state capital has
become a magnet for both younger buyers looking to take advantage
of the affordable cost of living, as well as retirees who want to
soak up the sun. Recently, the area has seen a large influx of
people from pricey West Coast markets -- San Francisco, Seattle and Portland. While builders have struggled to
meet the rising demand for housing, Phoenix set a record for new home permits in
March, April and May, so new inventory is on the way. Phoenix offers residents all the big city
amenities of shopping, dining and entertainment, without the
traffic of larger metropolitan cities. Additionally, those who want
to get out and hit the golf course have over 400 courses to choose
from. Phoenix is a business
friendly city and has a diverse list of large employers in both the
public and private sectors from education, government and
healthcare to technology, manufacturing and military. Phoenix was No. 5 on 2019's top markets
list.

The state capital of Pennsylvania has become a hot spot for buyers
looking for the quiet suburban lifestyle, more space, and increased
affordability. Harrisburg is
centrally located near New York,
Baltimore, Washington D.C.,
Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. Millennials in particular have
been drawn to the area as both first time homebuyers and move-up
buyers looking for more space for their growing families.
Harrisburg boasts a strong job
market not only for government employees working at the state
capital, but those in healthcare and shipping industries as well.
One of the biggest draws to the area is the ability to go from
downtown, to the suburbs, to more rural areas, in under 15
minutes.

Located north of Los Angeles on
the Pacific Coast is Oxnard,
Calif. The area is a mix of farmland and Pacific Coast
beaches, such as Hollywood Beach -- a second home market for
wealthy Angelanos looking for a break from the hustle and bustle of
city life. Farmers in the area grow strawberries and lima beans and
the annual Strawberry Festival is a big draw for Southern California locals. Thanks to its
affordability, the area has seen a boost in demand from buyers
seeking relief from Los Angeles
and Orange County home prices.
Beach homes in the area are significantly more affordable than
those in Malibu or Santa Monica, making this a popular
alternative for buyers hoping to get more bang for their buck.

Colorado's state capitol is
located just outside of the Rocky Mountains. The area's housing
market has been red-hot for the last several years and builders
have struggled to keep up with the high demand for housing. Though
the city is rapidly expanding, it still holds much of its Old West
charm, and its cost of living remains relatively affordable
compared to other Western markets. Many of Denver's residents are outdoor enthusiasts who
love to take advantage of the area's easy access to mountains,
rivers and lakes. No matter the season, there is an outdoor
activity closeby. Denver's high
quality of life is a major draw for many residents, as well as all
the amenities of downtown. With boutique shopping, dining, and
endless entertainment, the area has been supremely popular with
millennials. Due to the area's spike in demand, home prices have
grown rapidly, causing many first time home buyers to search
further out from the downtown center.
10.

Riverside
|
|
Median home price:
$475,050

Located in the Inland Empire, Riverside, Calif., is named for its location
along the Santa Ana River. Riverside draws many people who want to take
advantage of Southern California's
temperate weather, but don't want to pay Los Angeles or Orange County home prices. Riverside is centrally located, just 30
minutes to the beach, mountains or desert, making it a great
location for anyone that loves to be outdoors. Additionally, it's
in close proximity to Southern
California's attractions of Disneyland in Anaheim, skiing in the San Bernardino
Mountains, wine tasting in Temecula or the endless entertainment in
Los Angeles. Due to Southern California's high cost of living,
Riverside's relative affordability
and strong school system including Riverside Stem Academy (9/10
greatschools.org), have made it a popular destination for first
time homebuyers, growing families, and retirees.
