Maybe you need to do a little bit nore research, because that's EXACTLY what happens. Properties APPRECIATE, as long as you maintain them, hell, they will gain value even if you let them fall apart. You house is worth what your neighbors houses are selling for.

yeah, but what about value of the home, will it go up? the only way the value will go up is if you fixed it up. like fix the roof or something. i couldnt see the value of a 800k home just going up in time without putting any work on it
Property appreciates because of the market - it will if you fix it up - but a lot and quicker because of market conditions. I agree, you might want to do some research. Here's a good site to look at for the pricing trends. www.dqnews.com

it just that doesnt make sense to me.. a house will be worth more in time than if you fixed it up.. i thought the house will appreicate faster if you done some work to it. i dont know shit about buying a home, just the basics, but when you start talkin about how the property appreciates im clueless. i appreciate yall help tho

Appreciation is a basic economic rule of supply and demand

lol...i'll put appreciation in terms on of drugs - you got the A-1 premium yay but right now everyone has it. You sit on it for some time and drought season comes - your A-1 now is worth more per zip. That increase in price is the appreciation. The price increases cause there's less of it in supply but more demand for it.

In terms of housing, theres no sellers but more buyers, so the price keeps on rising. The number of houses is a relatively fixed number meaning you don't see large flucuations in the numbers. I mean the number of houses don't go down and they will go up, but not significantly to greatly affect the pricing.

We could get complicated and talk about how financing affects the housing market but i won't go there
