In May of 2008 Money Magazine named Birmingham, Alabama to the #3 spot on its list of “10 Fastest Growing Real Estate Markets”. For those moving to Birmingham, the lowest property taxes in the nation (according to The Land Report 10/27/08), and the amenities and lifestyle offered versus what you get for the money in many other markets, may come as a very pleasant surprise.
On January 9, 2009, Forbes named Birmingham one of the “25 Strongest Housing Markets”. In the November 2008 issue of SmartMoney magazine, Birmingham’s real estate market was listed in the #2 spot of the top 25 cities “ready to rebound”. To buy a home now, in what is one of the nation’s more stable markets, could be a real opportunity.
Individually, the suburbs of Birmingham continue to draw national attention by making several of the “best places to live“ and “best places to retire” lists. Hoover, Helena, and Vestavia Hills, Alabama have all been named. Most recently, Vestavia Hills was named to Relocate-America’s Top 100 List for 2009.
From Aldridge Gardens to the Birmingham Zoo, the Birmingham area literally offers every amenity from A to Z. Investors and homebuyers should take notice of all the recent buzz about the Birmingham Real Estate Market.
According to the Alabama Center for Real Estate monthly report, residential home sales have gone up significantly. The Center’s latest report stated that the Alabama Housing Affordability Index was at its highest level in years.
Birmingham, Alabama was named eighth out of the top ten real estate markets nationally for having the shortest supply of homes available in April of 2012. We are now beginning to see multiple offers on properties priced competively.
There is pent up demand for houses as the public perception has been to wait for lower prices, and still lower interest rates. Rental rates are up, and in most markets it is still cheaper to buy than rent. However, home affordability has increased significantly, and has made many rethink trying to predict the “bottom” of the market. With these factors in place, buying a home now may be a sound decision.
Birmingham, Alabama and its many suburbs currently have wonderful inventory from which to choose. For those who have managed their credit well, great opportunities exist. Whether investing, “moving up”, or purchasing a first home, the ”cost to own” is down, and the chance to get that “dream home” may be more within reach than ever before.

Recently TV’s Craig Ferguson performed at The Comedy Club in Hoover, a large suburb of Birmingham, Alabama. “I have NEVER seen a place more MISREPRESENTED in my LIFE “ , he said. “It’s all MODERN and everything. The people are SO FRIENDLY, and I had the BEST Philly cheesesteak sandwich I have EVER had in my life! I’M MOVING HERE!” , he exclaimed.
As I sat in that Saturday night audience enjoying his show, I wondered how many others HAD NO IDEA what WORLD CLASS AMENITIES Birmingham, and its outlying areas, have to offer. From Renaissance Ross Bridge Golf Resort and Spa to the five star Highlands Bar and Grill Restaurant; from the boutiques of Homewood and the Villages of Mountain Brook, to the fabulous shopping of The Summit, Riverchase Galleria, and Brookwood Mall; from SOUTHERN LIVING and SOUTHERN ACCENTS magazines toPepper Place design center; Birmingham Jefferson Civic Center to Regions Park; from the incredible estates of Mountain Brook to the explosion of new home communities , such as Greystone, along the 280 corridor; from top doctors to UAB Medical Center, Birmingham is one of the nation’s best kept secrets for amenities versus affordability.
More good news for the Birmingham real estate market is that Birmingham, Alabama now ranks #4 on the nation’s list of places for a home price rebound, according to the Birmingham Business Journal.
Birmingham was just named #46 on the list of the country’s largest metropolitan areas for quality of life, based on “well-rounded markets with healthy economies, moderate costs of living, light traffic, impressive housing stocks and high-powered educational systems” ( Birmingham ranks No. 46 for quality of life – Birmingham Business Journal).
Birmingham, and its surrounding communities have it all: great homes, fine dining and entertainment, incomparable sports, amazing shopping, terrific schools, world-renowned medical facilities, breathtaking scenery, and unbelievable weather, in a city that mixes trendy with traditional.
Friendly and sophisticated, Birmingham has all the amenities of Atlanta or LA , without the never-ending traffic congestion, or exorbitant cost of living. Whether your style is “English Cottage“, or “Tudor Castle”, you will find that Birmingham truly is a “Magic City”.
