Real Estate Market Direction...

Let's say that you are interested in becoming a real estate agent and really want to start selling houses right away. Is now a good time to get into the business? That is a very good question because just listening to the general population talk about the market you may think that it is heading in the wrong direction. Well, let me throw some statistics your way... According to kansasrealtor.com the number of homes sold in the month of August 2012 was 3,235 homes. If the market was declining you might say that the number from that point up until now would be fewer. However, the number of houses sold in August 2013 actually increased to 3,469 homes. Another statistic that is very important to a real estate agent that may interest people is that the average sale price of houses has also increased from $163,883 to $176,350. These stats are important and prove that the market is actually increasing and if interested it is not a bad time to be getting into this field of work.
