Force Behind the Rise in Home Prices? Image by renjith krishnan & FreeDigitalPhotos.net<\/p><\/div>\n

One of the main culprits driving the rise in home prices<\/strong>: The Federal Reserve, says Jonathan Miller, president and CEO of Miller Samuel Inc., a real estate appraisal and consulting firm.<\/p>\n

At a time when unemployment is high, lending standards are tight, and the overall economy is still sluggish, many have asked, \u201cHow has housing been able to still rebound?\u201d<\/p>\n

Record low mortgage rates are helping to boost home prices<\/em>, says Miller. The Fed has been buying up mortgage-backed securities to keep mortgage rates hovering at record lows.<\/p>\n

The record-low rates are allowing home buyers to purchase a home that is 50 percent more expensive than they otherwise would have been able to afford compared to average mortgage rates for the past 20 years, according to Tim Iacono of Iacono Research.<\/p>\n

The housing market started to mend in 2012 \u2014 making it the \u201cmost successful sector of the economy this year,\u201d according to a recent TIME magazine article. Home sales grew, foreclosures fell, and housing prices started to rise this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter years of falling home values, the data clearly showed that the bleeding stopped somewhere in the first part of 2012 and that home prices<\/span> have actually begun to slowly rise since then,\u201d writes reporter Christopher Matthews.<\/p>\n

As home prices continue to rise, some analysts expect lenders to ease up and be more willing to lend, which could provide another boost to home prices. Higher home prices also will likely give consumers confidence to spend more money, which can help give a boost to the overall economy too.<\/p>\n
