It’s been a strong real estate market so far in 2019! If you’re a local buyer or seller, you’ve probably experienced just how quickly things are moving. The number of properties for sale in Lexington and Central Kentucky continues to be lower than the demand, resulting in an average home price increase of over 3% for the first half of the year.

After another strong year for our local housing market, what can we expect in 2019? We’ve checked our crystal ball for indications of what the future holds for Central Kentucky home buyers and sellers!
Here are some key points regarding what we see affecting our local housing market in the year ahead:
Moderately rising mortgage rates. Interest rates have slowly risen this past year to around 4.75%, which historically is still a very attractive level (anyone remember the 16% rate of the early eighties?). Buyers tend to step up their buying decisions when faced with the possibility of higher rates down the road — so our normal, busy spring market might even start a little earlier than usual this year.
Millennials becoming home buyers. Historically, most people will consider their first home purchase as they hit their mid-twenties to early-thirties – and just like across the nation, these Millennials are vast in numbers in Lexington and Central Kentucky. Although student debt may be a financial drag for some in this age group, there are many who will be looking forward to buying their first home this year.
Continued strong buyer demand. As we kick off the new year, we have a lot of potential home buyers looking at the current inventory — and we foresee strong demand continuing at least through the middle of the year. We’ve always been blessed with a relatively strong local economy here in Lexington and Central Kentucky – regardless of what happens on the national scene. That’s why we feel confident in making our bold prediction for 2019:
Home buyers and sellers in Lexington and Central Kentucky will continue to move up, move down, move in and move out!
