How Buying or Selling Benefit the Economy and Your Community

If you're thinking of buying or selling a home, chances are you're focusing on the many extraordinary ways it'll benefit your life. But do you know it has a large impact on your community too?

To measure that impact, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) releases a report each year to highlight just how much economic activity a home sale generates.

The chart below shows how the sale of both a newly built home and an existing home impact the economy:

2006 was a different time, and today's housing market is nothing like the last one. In 2006 lending standards were much more relaxed with little evaluation done to measure how likely borrowers would be able pay back their loan in full; these days though- they're tight!

As the visual shows, a single home sale can have a significant effect on the overall economy. To dive a level deeper, NAR also provides a detailed look at how that varies state-by-state for newly built homes (see map below):
