Location in a community - Convenient access to schools, employment and amenities like shopping, restaurants and entertainment is a priority to many us and will greatly influence home values. So these regions generally appreciate, or retain their value consistently, year to year.

Real estate sales trends - How quickly are houses selling? Are sellers needing to discount much or offer concessions Some information can be obtained from public records, but a good agent with access to the local MLS will often be able to provide a more complete picture.

Appreciation history - Have home prices risen or declined over the last 5 to 10 years? Is the area thought to be desirable because of its location or affordability?

Local economy - Is there a good mix of work in an area, or does it count on just one industry? Have companies moved into or away from an area? Are local companies hiring? All these play a role.
