The 10 Worst Future Housing Markets | Clear Finance ... - Bankruptcy

Generally, people believe the housing market will rebound; I mean it has to right?

Well, according to the experts, there?s good news and bad news.

According to Fiserv-Case Schiller, housing prices are down 33.3 percent since they hit the ceiling in 2006. However, according to the data, prices are supposed to increase by 3.9% by the year 2017.

That doesn?t necessarily mean the housing market, as a whole will continue it?s pathetic demise with little growth, say the experts.

Some areas of our great country just happen to be prone for terrible housing growth, whereas, some areas are in a position to reap the benefits of a turnaround market if one is to rear its pretty little head. Unfortunately, it hasn?t yet done so, just like the job market; causing many to fall into deep debt after losing their jobs or going into unemployment bankruptcy and foreclose on their home.

Yahoo has devised a list of the projected 10 worst housing markets in the country in the upcoming years. Let?s just hope you don?t currently live in one of these areas nor going to move to one of these allegedly doomed cities.
