In the past research, I found that Orland Park is a great place to live. It has a nice neighborhood, great schools, and great houses.

Making yourself aware of the neighborhood and its growth, studying when the market peeks or if it is still growing, and studying the areas general financial foundation of the city, are all important things you need to be aware of when buying a house. According to Mankiw, "In any market, buyers look at the price when determining how much to demand, and sellers look at the price when deciding how much to supply. As a result of the decisions that buyers and sellers make, market prices reflect both the value of a good to society and the cost to society of making the good." This is one of the principles of economics that can quickly affect the profit of this investment.

The racial undertones of Detroit have been extremely problematic to Detroit’s real estate market for well over 50 years. These social disruptions continue to have an effect on the current residents of Detroit. During the middle of the nineteenth century, the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) introduced real estate tactics such as redlining, which is the practice of flagging minority dense neighborhoods for the purposes of denying approval of mortgages or inflating the price of the homes. Redlining had a profound social and economic effect on all residents of Detroit. The white majority began abandoning and selling their homes in fear that the value of the home would plummet, leading to a great financial loss when minorities moved in the area. This idea is known as white flight, and is the primary reason that Detroit has one of the highest African American populations in the country. However, through revitalization and gentrification of the Midtown/Downtown area, Detroit is slowly becoming more diverse. Throughout history, racial politics of the mid-to-late twentieth century affected Detroit 's real estate market by excluding minorities from the real estate market. Although adding stadiums, high end retail, small shops, and restaurants is economically valuable to the city of Detroit, this is conflicting and potentially problematic for the original residents of the area because the prices of these new establishments are often much higher than the residents can afford.
Thesis: To Kill a Mockingbird, like many other books, contains several different themes, however, one theme that is more prevalent than the others is the idea that mockingbirds, beautiful songbirds, are a sin to kill; the beauty of the world should not be destroyed. Thesis: Harper Lee incorporated an abundance of life lessons throughout her book; the theme of life skills and lessons learned by children, such as Scout and Jem Finch, are taught throughout the duration of their childhood to make that child stronger and wiser.

The United States will always recall autumn of 2008 as a time of financial terror, and rightly so. After the stock market crash, millions of Americans, previously unaware of the brewing crisis, lost their businesses, their jobs, and their homes. Even now, we still are in a period of recovery from the economic turmoil of that year.
Two economic factors affect supply in a stable housing market, price of related goods or similar houses, and the price of the good, best represented by style or size in the case of the housing market. The affluence of a community typically determines how much homes sell for in those communities, and therefore communities where a lot of people want to live become areas where average home prices are high. (Kumar, 1) There is little space in these affluent communities, and therefore little supply. A good example is New York City, where no homes are available, only apartment buildings, and very few apartments are actively exchanged each year.
Vancouver's Housing market is on par to some of the most expensive in the world. The high price of homes has caused many local people to move out of the city and has caused a lot of controversy. Locals are questioning to what the municipalities and provincial government are doing to help. So why are these market prices so high. It mostly comes down to supply in demand. The pressure on the housing market has arisen due to foreign buyers and shadow flipping, as supply for affordable housing diminishing. The locals blame shadow flipping, international buyers, and a tax regime that favors ownership over renting (King, 2016). Recently the Local Government and the Province have implemented many new controversial policies and taxes to control rent

The Canadian senior housing market is very broad, both economically and physically. Financial and medical needs have shaped the various different types of senior housing, resulting in benefits and disadvantages of each type. The senior housing market has had many changes over the past few years, due to the influx of baby boomers retiring. These retired baby boomers have started to rapidly shape the housing market not only for seniors, but for society in general. Senior housing choices influence the activity of the housing market, affecting both supply and demand.
Interest rates have a major economic impact on the real estate market. Interest rates directly affect property sales. Residential property realizes the greatest affect as interest rates have a considerable influence on a homebuyer’s capability to purchase a new property. The customer is affected when there are significant increases or decreases in interest rates. Declining interest rates lower the costs of obtaining a mortgage; this in turn creates higher demand for homes, and pushes home prices up. Conversely, high interest rates increase the costs to obtain a mortgage; these increases lower the demand for homes, which creates a decline in home prices. (Stammers, 2016)
