November 2006 Business 2.0 Report Researched By Moody's Economy.com

Arriving at a consensus for the 10 strongest markets and then relating the estimated highest appreciation in market values between now and 2011. Percentage figures shown represent Projected Gain In Home Prices Over The Next Five Years.

1. Panama City, FL:                                     +72%

This locale is poised to host big airliners, more visitors - a lot more buyers. Locals expect the new airport planned completion in 2008 to open up the way Southwest Florida International Airport in Fort Myers did for the southwestern coast of Florida.  Property prices are still low by Florida standards, and the local market has already absorbed a price correction.

2. Vero Beach, FL:                            +64%

Balmy weather, low property taxes, and a cost of living 3% lower than that of nearby West Palm Beach makes this coastal town an affordable alternative.  A Florida Atlantic University study says Indian River County and its two closest neighbors will need a projected 154,000 new homes during the next 25 years to house growing population. 

3, Bridgeport, CT:                             +63%

This city's average home prices are severely depressed at $280,000 compared with the county's other large urban areas of Stamford.  But, the wealth is starting to spread as more business is leaving New York for Greenwich and Stamford. 

4. Lakeland, FL:                               +59%

Few places in Florida "scream" that Lakeland is the place to buy as a house now goes for a fifth less than the national medium.  Meritage Homes plans to build more than 1,300 homes in the area in 2008.  This city lies along I-4 where the density of development is beginning to mirror the Dulles corridor in Virginia.

5. McAllen, TX:                                 +57%

Economists confirm that this area has 85% Latino who will soon be trading up. Further there is a housing shortage and pent up demand.  Predictions are that incomes will catch up to the area's economic growth, currently more than double the state average. 

6. San Luis Obispo, CA:                  +40

It is reported that thousands of retirement-agehttp://activerain.com/action/blogs_admin/write/27012 boomers will sell their Southern California homes to move to the cheaper area of San Luis Obispo.  Anti-development sentiment has helped to slow down zoning against a growing demand.  The word is that they will have to allow more homes or prices will go through the roof.

7. Wilmington, NC:      +37% 

Economists report that this locale is the only city of any significant size on the North Carolina coast, and may just be at the beginning of its boom.  It has a seaport, an international airport and major university. 

8. Manchester, NH:                          +35%

New Hampshire has no income or sales tax, and is in commuting distance of Boston. Manchester is the largest city in northern New England; neighbors Nashua which has twice won honors as Money magazine's "best place to live". 

9. Fort Collins, CO:                          +28%

This locale appears time and again on the media's "best place" lists. Colorado has been lagging in housing price in recent years with anemic price appreciation according to economists. 

10. Atlanta, GA:                                +24%

This metro region expected price gain against the market and with a population of over 5 million may be dramatic.  The greater Atlanta region includes 110 municipal governments determined to beat its neighbors in growth.  Commuters are targeting to move inside the I-285 perimeter which is pumping up prices in the more desirable Atlanta neighborhoods.  Economists expect to see the greatest appreciation along the cities southern fringes.
