National Lake Real Estate Firm Announces Hot Lakes for 2022
BIRMINGHAM, AL / ACCESSWIRE / January 11, 2022 / After having a house full of family for the holidays and with the rising rate of Omicron, searches for lake homes are heating up. The analysts at Lake Homes Realty, the country's largest lake real estate brokerage, have reviewed more than 97 million page views on LakeHomes.com and searched available inventory to determine hot lakes to watch in 2022 for real estate.
'The great escape to the lake accelerated in 2020, continued through 2021, and will likely expand in 2022, depending on the available inventory to sell,' said Glenn S. Phillips. 'Lake homes offer more indoor space for remote working and school, great outdoor options, and relaxing retreats to reconnect with family,' said Phillips. 'In 2021, nearly 7 million people searched for lake homes and lots on www.LakeHomes.com, the website of Lake Homes Realty. As usual, we saw a spike in searches for lake homes after Christmas and at the start of the New Year.' Phillips expects he searches for lake homes and lots to increase as spring approaches.
'To help determine the Hot Lakes for 2022, we reviewed statistics from the more than 97 million pageviews in 2021 and looked at current listings for lake homes and lots across the country,' said Phillips. 'We believe it was important to look at recent pageviews on www.LakeHomes.com plus current availability of lake homes and lots for sale to identify these top tier locations.'
