Grants for Grads: A Golden Opportunity
This graduation season is especially exciting as South Dakota Housing revives its Grants for Grads program. Eligible graduates can receive 5% of their home purchase price towards down payments and closing costs — a benefit that doesn’t have to be repaid. Coupled with a lower mortgage rate of 6.125%, this opportunity is not to be missed.
The Time to Invest in Real Estate is Now
As highlighted in a recent feature on SiouxFalls.Business, the housing market is experiencing unprecedented growth. The 2020s have seen a surge in home prices, outpacing the growth rates of past decades. In Sioux Falls alone, the average home price has risen by over 7% in the past year.
Historical Comparisons:
The recent surge in home prices during the 2020s might raise concerns, particularly amid the prevalent doom-and-gloom headlines. At Amy Stockberger Real Estate, we often field questions such as: Is a market crash on the horizon? Is now a bad time to buy? Should we wait for prices to drop?

- 1990s: 30.1 percent increase in home price growth.
- 2000s: 47.3 percent increase.
- 2010s: 44.7 percent increase.
- 2020s: 47.1 percent increase in just the first 50 months
Looking back through history, we observe a consistent pattern: home prices have generally trended upwards every decade. So far, the 2020s have been remarkable, showing higher price inflation early in the decade than seen in previous decades. Yet, the long-term outlook remains positive, with continued home value appreciation expected.
What does this mean for you? Here are some key insights:
- Long-term Investment Potential: The enduring upward trend in real estate underscores its value as a robust long-term investment. History has shown that even after periods of market correction, real estate typically recovers and continues to grow, highlighting the stability of this asset class.
- Navigating Housing Market Dynamics: It’s vital for both buyers and sellers to stay informed about local market conditions. National trends often overshadow regional differences—some areas may see a spike in housing inventory, while others might experience record lows. This variation emphasizes the importance of understanding specific local market conditions.
- Optimistic Market Outlook: Despite fears of a downturn, the market has not shown signs of significant decline, suggesting that strategic investments could continue to yield considerable returns. However, as with any major investment, a thorough analysis is crucial to ensure the best outcomes.
