Almost every real estate conversation revolves around the continuous rise in Irvine house values over the last four to five years. Some have even mentioned a concern about another possible bubble forming. However, the recent increase in prices can be attributed to a very simple principle: supply and demand.DEMANDDemand for single-family housing has continued to increase as the economy slowly moves forward. Recent surveys have shown that over 80% of each generation still believes that homeownership is a part of the American Dream. And a recent Gallup survey showed that Americans believe that real estate is the best long-term investment.SUPPLYOver the last several years, many homeowners were unable to put their homes on the market for an assortment of reasons (family finances, no or limit...

According to Bankrate's recent Financial Security Index Poll Americans who have money to set aside for the next 10 years would rather invest in real estate than any other type of investment.Bankrate asked Americans to answer the following question:"Which would be the best way to invest money you did not need for more than 10 years?"Real Estate came in as the top choice with 25% of all respondents, while cash investments (such as savings accounts and CD's) came in second with 23%. The chart below shows the full results:Sterling White, co-founder of Holdfolio, gave one reason as to why real estate may have ranked so high."Houses are tangible.

As we make our way into the New Year, (am I the only one who feels like 2016 whizzed by?!), the National Association of Realtors, The Mortgage Bankers' Association, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae are all projecting that home sales will increase in 2017. Here is a chart showing what each entity is projecting in sales for this year and the next.As we can see, each is projecting sizable increases in home sales next year, and I believe that Irvine home sales will see the same increases.The Irvine market is hot right now, with the seasonal low inventory. A house I listed for sale on Silkgrass, in the Woodbridge Windsor Estates tract, saw a lot of interest, and sold after less than a week on the market. We close escrow on about January 26th.If you have recently been thinking about selling your Ir...
