Why price your home like Target?

Each month, researchers at The University of Michigan survey a small sample of the U.S. population about their thoughts on the economy — is it improving, it is worsening, is it staying the same.

May’s consumer confidence survey registered it’s lowest reading since 1980 — and for good reason:

• Unemployment is spiking
• Gas prices are at an all-time high
• Housing markets keep getting bad press

But despite all of that, it appears that the American Consumer is taking the economy’s hiccups in stride.

Last month, retailers around the country reported rising sales levels that doubled economists expectations.  This isn’t supposed to happen when consumer confidence is falling so fast.

But, a closer look shows that the retail sales data was led by discount retailers such as Target and Wal-Mart.  In other words, consumers feel worse about the economy, so when they choose to spend money, they spend it on value items.

For home buyers, this should sound familiar because it’s every real estate agent’s mantra right now — “there’s a lot of good values to be had.”  It’s why some homes are getting multiple offers within days while other languish on the market for months.

The housing market is showing signs of strength across the country, low consumer confidence notwithstanding.  Every buyer is looking for a “good buy” and there’s plenty of places to find them.
