Driving Factors For North Dakota Real Estate Market

Foreclosures Increasing

While North Dakota typically has fewer foreclosure filings than most states, the removal of moratoriums and a continuing recession have already caused an increase in distressed homes.

Home Prices Still On The Rise

The North Dakota real estate market has dealt with tight inventory for years. Even though mortgage applications are slowing down, the lack of available housing still hasn’t improved so home values are expected to continue to rise.

Interest Rates Will Continue To Climb

The Federal Reserve has had to increase interest rates to combat inflation and more rate hikes are expected in the future to limit the purchasing power of would be investors and homeowners.

EquityMax Insight

The recent increase in distressed properties across the state has provided great opportunities for investors to receive solid profit margins on fix and flip and wholesale deals. However, long-term investments, such as rental properties, have appeared to perform the best for real estate investors in North Dakota. Relatively low interest rates (although rising) have made it cheaper to borrow money, low housing inventory has forced more residents to rent, and more people renting has justified increased rental asking prices.  Overall, that means for cash flow for the landlord/investor.
