LOCATION

The Chattanoogan Hotel (1202 Broad Street)

DESCRIPTION

Join us for the annual Economic Outlook Luncheon co-hosted by Greater Chattanooga REALTORS® and the Home Builders Association of Greater Chattanooga.

Dr. Jessica Lautz will present Future of Home. 

Buyers and sellers have changed what they want in a home, how they use their home, how they search for a new home, and the relationship to the agent.

The housing market has roared over the last two years, but now shows signs of normalization.

Buyers are facing ever rising mortgage rates coupled with rising prices and have struggled to find the perfect home and found creative ways to enter the market.

Demographics have shifted and many potential buyers have been left out. How is everyone coping and what comes next?
