Napa, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/17/2014 -- According to Trulia.com, home prices have been on the rise since about 2012 in Napa CA. In early November the median home sales price in Napa had increased by 4.6%, from one year ago. Although prices over the last few years have been moving up, the general feeling in Napa Valley real estate is that demand for living in this area of California continues to be very high. Robert Juarez, of Vista Properties Realty in Napa, adds, “Our local real estate market has seen much of the foreclosure inventory sell over a span of about 3-4 years. Home prices have since increased significantly in the last year, about 2013. However, yes, today interest in living in Napa Valley and home ownership remains strong, especially with the increasing costs of rents.”

Of course, Napa Valley has long been known for it’s breathtaking greenery, clear skies, the acres upon acres of vineyards, and the 100s of wineries that produce the renowned wine in this area. What many may not be aware of is how wonderful a place the Napa Valley is to live in. This area basically includes 6 cities or towns: Napa, Yountville, Oakville, Rutherford, St. Helena, and Calistoga. Residents of the area share that the valley has a very unique small town feel to it. “It’s a small town, but Napa always seems to have a strong inflow of visitors most of the year. So, it is small but not too quiet.”

The main challenge for those looking to live in the Napa Valley is that new development is very minimal. This provides both challenges and opportunities for those looking to buy or sell real estate property. Home buyers will find that sometimes the inventory of homes can very limited, or limited in their price range; and that prices have started to move back up. For sellers, those who are selling thru a traditional sale (not a short sale), today’s prices are now at a level that will actually let them sell at a reasonable price.
