Casper, WY – Home Sales are STRONG in the Casper area. Despite negative data regarding the housing market nationally, Casper continues to have one of the strongest markets in the country.
The Casper housing market has seen steady growth even through this past year when national statistics, higher interest rates and the sub-prime debacle have caused concern and pessimism in the general public. The following information represents the Year to Year growth reported in the MLS Statistical Report:

As reported in the fall addition of the 9/28/07 Wyoming Business Report written by David A. Robateck, “Wyoming’s rate of appreciation in home values last year more than doubled the national average and ranked second in the nation trailing only Utah.” He also stated in the article that “statistics from the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight show that Wyoming house prices increased by 14.29 percent.”
It’s no secret the strong economy in Wyoming and Casper brought on by a booming energy industry, has a great deal to with our strong Real Estate Market. 2008 LOOKS TO BE A GREAT TIME TO BUY, SELL, OR BUILD A HOME IN CASPER!!!
