Traffic is a huge deterrent for many home buyers but the worst nightmare for a Realtor is selling property within a dead or recession hit economic area. The following is a heart rendering list “By The Numbers: Worst Cities For Jobs.” Although many of these areas have great home buying deals, Realtors are struggling to sell even the best properties.
The List
New Orleans, LA: “5-year annualized job growth: -3.8%”
Detroit, MI: “5-year annualized job growth: -1.5%”
Flint, MI: “5-year annualized job growth: -1.4%”
Canton, OH: “5-year annualized job growth: -1.1%”
Warren, MI: “5-year annualized job growth: -0.9%”
Hickory, NC: “5-year annualized job growth: -0.8%”
Lansing, MI: “5-year annualized job growth: -0.8%”
Dayton, OH: “5-year annualized job growth: -0.7%”
Youngstown, OH: “5-year annualized job growth: -0.6%”
Ann Arbor, MI: “5-year annualized job growth: -0.4%”
Why being so negative? I believe chance to be sucessful is waiting for realtors everywhere. For example I think New Orleans will not be down for the rest of eternity and the reconstruction of town can bring many oportunities… I am dealing West Toronto homes, so I know it’s easy for me to say such things, because Canadian housing market is doing very well, but hard times are waiting for everybody few times in career.
