please aggregate the following data to create graphs and/or charts
(whichever most user-friendly for data analysis) containing all of the
information below:
(1)avg home (single family residence) price values and average % of
home price appreciation in the top 3 cities per sunbelt state from
1950-present? in other words, for each of the sunbelt states (in the
U.S.), please research the three cities in each sunbelt state that
experienced the highest avg home price appreciation from 1950-present)
(2)30-year fixed interest rates from 1950-present
(3)the value of the prime rate from 1950-present
(4)unemployment rates from 1950-present
(5)avg days on market (how long it took, on avg, to sell the homes in
these sunbelt cities) from 1950-present?
(6)avg price paid per sq foot in each of these cities from 1950-present?
(7)avg cost of rent (for a single family residence) in these cities
from 1950-present?
(8)avg amount of equity in the homes in these cities from 1950-present?
(9)estimate of avg home price appreciation in these cities from present-2018?
(10)all of the same information for condominiums

HELLO MYOARIN!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR COMMENTS BELOW--I APPRECIATE YOU, YOUR
INSIGHT & INTELLIGENCE, & YOUR REQUEST FOR CLARIFICATION. PLEASE
EXCUSE THE CAPITAL LETTERS--SIMPLY THE EASIEST & PERHAPS CLEAREST WAY
TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN YOUR COMMENTS & MINE. . .HERE GOES--PLEASE
READ BELOW.
This is just a free comment. I see that this your first posting to G-A.
It is a compliment to the Researchers that you think all your
questions can be answered, however there may be problems (PROBLEMS
DON'T EXIST--ONLY SOLUTIONS : ).
As you can read in the FAQs, you will have a much better chance of
getting answers to all your questions if you post them as individual
questions, thus allowing more than one Researcher to help you
(POSSIBLE TO DIVIDE THE QUESTIONS AMONGST YOURSELVES WITHOUT MY HAVING
TO BREAK THEM DOWN & GO THROUGH THE POSTING PROCESS AGAIN? MONEY NOT
THE ISSUE--HAPPY TO PAY FOR STRONG PERFORMANCE!).
You might also list the states that you include in the Sun Belt; there
are different counts(NEVADA, ARIZONA, NEW MEXICO, TEXAS, ALABAMA,
GEORGIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, NORTH CAROLINA, TENNESSEE, FLORIDA).
Also, if you by chance know some of the "top 3 cities" (PERHAPS THE 3
MOST POPULATED CITIES IN EACH OF THE STATES ABOVE?) in each state
- or ones that you would be happy to accept as such - that would make
the job easier. Otherwise a Researcher will have to do a great deal
more searching to ascertain which cities were tops in appreciation.
Have you considered that several cities in the region were hardly such
55 years ago? The places with the largest increase in home prices may
be those that were only secondary suburb developments after the war,
ones with "ticky-tacky" little houses that probably no longer exist.
Orlando had 52,000 inhabitants in 1950, 185,000 in 2000. Do you
really want the selection of cities based on your statement under
point (1)?
Perhaps you do. Do you also want the unemployment figures just for
these cities in each state? ("just"! That is at least a dozen
different places - and maybe fruitless searching. YES PLEASE--AVG
ANNUAL UNEMPLOYMENT FIGURES FOR "ONLY" THE 3 MOST POPULATED CITIES IN
THE STATES ABOVE)
"1950-present": are you asking for interim periods? (AVG UNEMPLOYMENT
FIGURES PER YEAR SINCE 1950 PLEASE)
Sorry to be asking so many questions, but I hope you see the point
(APOLOGIES UNNECESSARY--COMMUNICATION KEY TO ALL SOLUTIONS).
Please believe me, I am not suggesting that your questions cannot be
answered, just the magnitude of the effort. Perhaps you have not
realized how much information your question is asking for - perhaps
it is more than you really need or intended to request - the choice
of cities, for example.
Let us know if you can refine your question. Most major ones start
with a dialogue for just this reason. RECEPTIVE TO YOUR SUGGESTIONS
AS TO THE BEST, MOST EFFECTIVE APPROACH. . .
Again, this is a free comment, not an "answer", which only an official
G-A Researcher with a blue name can post. BLUE NAME?
Looking forward to hearing from you, Myoarin LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT ELSE YOU NEED FROM ME. . .HAPPY DAY!

vict-ga,
Thanks for bringing your question to Google Answers.
You're asking for information from 30 cities, and about 20 pieces of
information from each city = 600 pieces of data.
You can see what a substantial task this is, and even at $200, it
involves a level of effort that can't easily be justified.
A suggestion: Ask your question, first, for just a single city of
most interest to you...Atlanta seems a good starting city.
This will allow both you and the researchers to get familiar with what
information is really available, and how much effort is involved in
amassing it.
After a single city's work is done, then you could post new questions
for additional cities.
How does that sound?

vict-ga,
You picked a pretty significant city.
I found a recent US government report on housing prices that says that
Phoenix is the fastest growing area in the country, in terms of the
increases in housing prices:
...Phoenix-Mesa-Scottsdale, AZ continues to be the MSA with the greatest
appreciation rate of 39.7 percent.
...Appreciation in Arizona continues to surpass price growth in other parts of
the country by a wide margin. Appreciation was 34.9 percent between the
fourth quarter of 2004 and the fourth quarter of 2005. This is more than eight
percentage points greater than the rate in Florida, the second fastestappreciating
state
The actual recent home price appreciation in the Phoenix MSA
(metropolitan statistical area, a unit used by the census) is:
MSA Ranking 1-Yr. Qtr. 5-Yr.
Phoenix-Mesa-Scottdale, AZ 1 39.67% 7.77% 93.02%
So...prices have almost doubled in the past five years.
The report doesn't go back farther than this, I'm afraid.
Is this sort of information useful? If so, I can probably provide it
for most large cities in the sunbelt, or elsewhere in the US.
Let me know what you think the best way to proceed is, at this point.
