It’s no secret that the economy has been on a
downward spiral for quite some time. While it’s hard to find anything good
about that fact, the one bright spot has been, at least for hopeful
soon-to-be-homeowners, that home prices were cheaper than ever before. However,
a new report from the S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Index demonstrates that
home prices may be rising. The index, which tracks home prices from twenty US
cities, shows a 12.1% rise in home prices in June 2013, as well as an even
larger rise in May of the same year.
While prices seem to be rising across the board,
the cities facing the biggest pricing increases are Denver and Dallas. Don’t
let this scare you too much, however. If you’re working
with a quality accounting firm, you can determine your budget for a home;
in other words, your accounting firm can keep you from spending too much. For
