Thinking about buying or selling a house? It’s not just about you—it’s a win for the local economy and your community too.

Every year, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) shares a report on the financial impact of home sales (check out the visual below):

Selling a house gives a real boost to the local economy. That’s because it takes a lot of people to build, fix up, and sell homes. Robert Dietz, Chief Economist at the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), says the housing industry creates a lot of jobs:

“. . . housing is a significant job creator. In fact, for every single-family home built, enough economic activity is generated to sustain three full-time jobs for a year . . .”

Think about everyone involved in selling a house—city officials, contractors, lawyers, real estate agents, specialists, and more. Each sale supports these jobs and helps out your community.

So, when you buy or sell a home, you’re helping your neighbors too. Moving isn’t just about your needs—it’s also doing good for your community. Knowing that your move helps so many people around you can make your decision feel even better.

Every home sale boosts the local economy. Ready to move? Let’s get in touch. It’ll change your life and benefit the whole community.
