Why California Dominated This Top Ten List |
| In Zillow’s recent list of the top U.S. housing markets, the Golden State ruled the day. That is, California took up the most spaces on the seller-side with: Sacramento occupying the 10th spot, Los Angeles coming in 8th, Riverside ranking 6th, San Francisco squeezing into 2nd, and San Jose securing bragging rights as the top market in which to sell your home. |
| So how is it that California led this list out of hundreds of potential metros across the United States?Well, quick sales helped quite a bit. In fact, Southern California had some of the speediest sales in the nation earlier this year with San Diego, Los Angeles, and Orange County ranked 5th, 7th, and 8th, respectively.Plus, job growth has helped fuel our state’s housing market. In fact, California produced nearly one-third of all new jobs across the U.S. in August!
Inland Empire witnessed over 33,000 new jobs between August 2013 and 2014 thanks to new development in the construction industry. Orange County’s 5.4% jobless rate marked the lowest level in Southern California during August. And California’s overall 7.4% jobless rate for August showed a drastic drop from its 8.9% high earlier this year. With all of this positive growth, it’s easy to see why experts are predicting a double-digit percentage increase in home sales in 2015.
