Nashville Real Estate Market

Nashville's healthy economy and robust job market have ignited the housing market within the last two years. Nashville appeared in the Urban Land Institute's 2016 list of the top 10 real estate markets for investors to watch. Real estate analysts have noticed a surge in people relocating to Nashville from expensive cities like New York, taking advantage of Nashville's relatively low cost of living balanced with its abundance of urban amenities. For most of Nashville, it's currently a seller's market. Inventory has only risen by about three percent over the past year, while demand has not slowed down. Median listing prices have jumped by about 16 percent in that same time period, and homes are spending an average of just over a month on the market. In high-demand neighborhoods, the right home may be off the market within days.

Median home prices in Nashville run in the 300's for a single-family home at an average size of 2,200 square feet, while condos and townhomes sell for a median price in the upper 200's and come in at an average of 1,300 square feet. However, housing at nearly every price point is available throughout the city. About 53 percent of residents are homeowners; the median rent cost is $900 per month.

Housing demand has resulted in numerous new developments and additions, so new construction, contemporary home styles and urban condos are common.

High-end and luxury real estate is available in neighborhoods like Belle Meade and Green Hills.
