An analysis of \u201ccompetitive\u201d markets in 2021 projects that Tampa will be the hottest in the U.S. this year, with Jacksonville and Orlando close behind.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n ORLANDO, Fla. \u2013 An analysis of the 50 largest U.S. metro areas to determine \u201cthe hottest\u201d (most competitive) for 2022 determined that Tampa was No. 1 in the U.S.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n To determine hotness, the study released by Zillow looked at home value appreciation from November 2021 to November 2022, anticipated change in home value appreciation from 2021, the flow of for-sale inventory, an estimate of the net new number of home-owning households based on current demographic trends and new jobs per new housing unit permitted.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Of the top 10 hot home markets, two other Florida metro areas also made the list: Jacksonville in the No. 2 spot, and Orlando at No. 9. Last year\u2019s No. 1 hottest market, Austin, Texas, fell to No. 10 this year.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n The economists who oversee the yearly ranking say shoppers in the hot markets will likely face strong competition, rising prices and limited inventory that\u2019s snatched off the market quickly. The study finds Tampa, for example, has strong forecasted home value growth, a thriving job market, relatively scarce and fast-moving inventory, and demographics that indicate a good number of potential buyers. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cHomebuyers are attracted to markets in the Sun Belt that offer relative affordability, fast-growing economies and weather that allows them to enjoy the outdoors year-round,\u201d says Zillow Economist Alexandra Lee. \u201cAcross the board, sellers will remain in the driver\u2019s seat, but especially so in the hottest markets. Buyers should be ready for strong competition for homes, which means bidding wars and homes flying off the market only days after they are listed.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n In addition to Austin\u2019s fall from No. 1 to No. 10, Denver dropped off the top 10 list (No. 5 last year, No. 15 this year).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n10 hottest housing markets of 2022 <\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
