2022 REAL ESTATE FORECAST

TRENDS & MARKET OUTLOOK

Housing was one of the strongest sectors of the economy for 2021, but rising interest rates and out-of-control inflation are causing many to wonder if strong sales and higher prices will continue. What’s the outlook for housing in 2022? HOME PRICES WILL CONTINUE TO RISE.

Lawrence Yun, chief economist for the National Association of REALTORS, believes the number of home sales will decline in 2022 but will still outpace pre-pandemic levels, based on strong demand from homebuyers. Economists disagree on how much housing prices will rise this year. Goldman Sachs economists predict that home prices will climb another 16% in 2022, reports Houwzer.com. Yet, Corelogic has lowered its forecast from 2.2% to 1.9%, according to Fortune.com. The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) offers a mixed take for 2022 – that the median price of existing homes will post a 15.3% year-over-year gain to $362,000 in the first quarter of 2022, but that prices will fall as the year progresses. 4 | 4SMOKYS.COM

COVID-19 IS STILL DRIVING HOME PURCHASES. The pandemic disrupted

schools, childcare, healthcare and employment, particularly in service and hospitality industries. According to the Harvard Model Congress 2022, the number of Americans working from home skyrocketed from 8% in February 2020 to 35% in May.

Apollotechnical.com assembled statistics that suggest telecommuting is here to stay. A survey conducted of 1,500 hiring managers by Upwork found that 61.9% of the companies were planning more remote work now and in the future, resulting in 36.2 million teleworkers (22% of Americans) will be working remotely by 2025. A PwC survey also found that 72% of those workers surveyed would like to continue working from home for at least 2 days a week

even when they can go back to the office full time, and 32% said they would like to work from home permanently. Telecommuters are rethinking how they want to live their lives. They like the freedom and increased productivity working from home has given them to have more time for their families. They want more space and found that they could sell their expensive urban homes for roomier and more affordable housing in rural areas, suburbs and exurbs. According to Forbes.com, telecommuters want homes with office spaces, workout rooms, and other amenities which will change how homes are planned and designed.

Millennials will lead homebuying trends. Millennials were hit hard by the Great Recession of 2008, with impacts that are still being felt fourteen years later. They delayed forming households, and have been unable to accumulate the wealth of previous generations. While they make up 35% of workers, they only owned about 5.1% of all the wealth in 2020, compared to baby boomers who owned 21% of US wealth in 1989. Now, millennials make up 37% of homebuyers, which is driving demand for housing.

We invite you to dive into the state of the market around the world and forecasted trends likely to shape this year. In the Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices 2022 Real Estate Report, we look at buyers’ changing priorities and tastes, inventory and material supply issues, and we explore which parts of the world are showing lots of growth—from Dallas to Dubai and almost everywhere in between.

BUILT IN,

OUTDOOR BAR-B-QUE GRILLS Building an outdoor grill in your backyard can help you enjoy pleasant weather while providing your family with delicious meals. Whether you do it yourself, hire a landscape architect, or get a kitchen specialist to design your outdoor kitchen, you’ll take full advantage of your outdoor space and the comforts and entertainment it can provide. There are many items to consider when installing a built-in outdoor grill, including location, ventilation, type of grill, and features. Will you need to install a gas line to the grill? Will there be water available? Do you plan to have other kitchen functions such as storage, an ice maker and an outdoor dining area? You’ll want to locate the grill at least 10 feet from the house. Use fire-retardant materials such as stainless steel, stone, or bricks for countertops and retaining walls. Most grills have lids to retard fire, but where the smoke blows are also crucial. The BBQGuys maintain that proper ventilation sucks out scorching heat and keeps smoke and odor away from you while you’re grilling and your guests. It also vents grease, fumes and 6 | 4SMOKYS.COM

discoloration from your outdoor kitchen surfaces which reduces fire hazards. If you prefer gas, contact your gas company to find a reputable gas contractor and get more than one bid. Charcoal and propane tank grills offer more flexibility in where you install them. Make grilling outdoors more convenient by finishing out the area with amenities like built-in trashcans, side burners, sinks and a drink station. Don’t forget to check into your local building codes; there may be rules you need to follow, and your project could require a building or plumbing permit, depending on the scope of your plans.

FIVE HOME DÉCOR TRENDS FOR 2022

ARE THIRD-PARTY ONLINE HOME VALUES ACCURATE?

The way Americans use their homes has changed since the advent of the pandemic and has encouraged interior design trends for 2022. These ideas are so smart, they’re likely to stick around even after the pandemic is over.

Plenty of sellers have visited online home valuation sites only to be shocked at the published value of their homes. Most sellers are pleased when the values appear higher than they expected, but many online valuations come in far lower. So, should you use these values to price your home for sale?

Smart furniture – According to Puffy.com, the smart furniture industry is on track to reach $244 million by 2024. Televisions can double as artwork when turned off, couches, beds, and chairs offer charging ports, but most exciting are coffee tables that come with refrigerator drawers so you never have to leave the game to grab a cold one. Muted but colorful décor – Color palettes for 2022, such as those suggested by Benjamin Moore, are calling for blue, green and yellow colors on the paler side, far from the dark and moody jewel, spice and deep ocean shades of recent years. Vintage accents – Whenever life seems chaotic, homeowners become nostalgic for simpler times. Housebeautiful.com explains that vintage furniture and accessories feature craftsmanship, materials and a flair for individuality that can’t be duplicated today. Large floral patterns are great to pair with stripes or abstract fabrics. READ MORE.

These sites provide greater transparency to homebuyers and sellers by making data derived from public records more accessible. They publish what you paid for your home and how much you pay in taxes. But few consumers realize that two homes right next door to each other could have vastly different values. The property tax base resets for each home every time it’s sold. If you’ve only owned your home for five years, you are likely paying much more in property taxes than your retired neighbors who bought their home 30 years ago. Yet your home may not be “worth” more unless you’ve done some substantial updates and/or additions. Between tax roll data and listing data, home valuation sites apply their own secret sauce, or algorithm to come up with estimates or approximate values of what homes in a given area are worth. they include properties not currently on the market.

5 BED | 5 ½ BATHS | MAIN HOUSE + GUEST CABIN The perfect combination of history, beauty and stunning views can be yours in this ideal Downtown Bryson City location overlooking the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Started in the late 1930's, completed in 1940 with approximately 7 acres and a historic cabin onsite, you simply won't find a better investment opportunity. The home’s entire exterior is constructed of granite stone that was hand cut by the Civilian Conservation Corps from a former quarry in the area now known as the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. In addition to the long-range mountain views, the home is perched above town, with a straight-line view down Everett Street, Bryson City’s main street. Take the walking path just by the home’s front entrance to the convenience of nearby amenities: all of Bryson City’s quaint shops & delicious dining, Great Smoky Mountain Railroad, the fly-fishing museum, Swain County Visitors Center and more. Minutes to Deep Creek by car to explore hiking trails, tubing & waterfalls. A short drive to the Road to Nowhere Tunnel with scenic overlooks to admire the view above Fontana Lake. 20-minutes to Downtown Cherokee offers the main entrance to the National Park. Nantahala Gorge is also a short distance (within 10-15 minutes) for white water rafting, waterfall viewing, fishing and other activities. Asheville is just 1 hour east with much to offer including the famous Biltmore Estate.

This grand home has undergone a total interior renovation between October 2018 and late 2019 and includes the following updates and improvements: new metal roof, gutters and downspouts (2019); 2 new HVAC units with smart thermostats and all new duct work (2019); 90% of electrical wiring replaced (2019); all cast iron sewer lines removed/changed to PVC as well as the copper plumbing lines changed from copper to PEX in 2019. Fixtures, faucets, flooring; windows, doors & cabinets; showers, sinks & toilets; base moldings, crown moldings, custom bay window seating – even a brand new custom built propane fireplace – designed for more discerning buyers and their guests, creating a mid-century modern product with an effective age of 2019. 5 well-appointed bedrooms -- each with their own private bath; a half bath just inside the entry; 2 full kitchens with stainless appliances & quartz countertops; main level kitchen with soft close cabinetry, vented range hood and Sharp microwave drawer. The sunny, open kitchen offers access to the beautifully cozy sunroom for a glass of wine or game of cards. This kitchen also opens to your large, bright dining area for those who love to entertain. Two laundry areas accommodate 2 sets of full- sized washer/dryer units (new in 2019); plenty of living space to accommodate friends and family for holidays and gatherings. The flooring in the home is a wood-look plank porcelain tile – as durable as it is beautiful! If staying indoors and relaxing is your preference MOUNTAIN TIME IN THE SMOKYS |

-- kick back on the custom built bay window bench seating with a good book and stare out at the beautiful view of the town and the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. The lower level offers table tennis, pac-man or just watch a good movie on one of the 5 Roku streaming televisions. Outdoor living space to amaze with a huge slate stone patio, Adirondack seating, new gas grill, 6-seat fire table and more. Take the stairs to enjoy a private, natural wood-burning fire pit on the lower patio. If all of this is not fantastic in itself --- also included with the property is a historic 1 bedroom, 1-bathroom cabin that was relocated to its current spot by Dr. Harold Bacon, original owner of the main home and the town’s former doctor. The cabin was built in the 1800's with wood from the now extinct American Chestnut tree. Fully renovated in 2021, the cabin includes new flooring, a new full kitchen with stainless appliances and a pretty bathroom with a separate vanity, seamless glass shower enclosure and quartz counters throughout. The charming and cozy fireplace was converted from wood burning to propane and lights easily with a remote control. The stone portion of the exterior was re-mortared in 2021, including the stone chimney. Under the cabin is a storage area which also houses the water heater and breaker box.

10 | 4SMOKYS.COM

The main house and cabin are both currently on a successful vacation rental program since July 2020. The main home accommodates up to 11 guests and the cabin up to 2 guests. The buildings are rented separately but could be rented together for larger groups. This property has potential for multiple uses: a Bed & Breakfast or small inn; an AirBNB or your full-time home in the mountains! The separate entry basement would allow for long-term rental options as would the cabin. The previous owners had a road partially cut, visible above the cabin going up to the acreage. The current owner has information on excavation and drainage for 2 additional house spots on the 2 peaks at the top of the hill. This area would likely require septic but should be able to connect to city water. Property is being sold furnished (minus a few personal pieces/furnishings). Mattresses all new in 2019 . If you've been looking for the right investment opportunity, look no furtherbecause this one definitely has it all. This is truly a must-see property!
