Ongoing urban development projects like the new Lookouts baseball stadium and multi-family development in East Chattanooga are expected to invigorate the local economy further.
Current Trends and Predictions
The average home value in the U.S. was $358,461 in December 2024, but Chattanooga’s market is catching fire with predictions of continued upswing, despite the slight slowdown brought on by rising mortgage rates. The current demand for housing far surpasses supply levels, making it a robust seller’s market in 2024. The influx of newcomers from other regions will likely continue to fuel real estate appreciation.

Experts believe Chattanooga is at a significant turning point with landmark projects potentially reshaping the real estate landscape. As Nashville’s appeal and Tennessee’s favorable tax structure draws people in, the demand for properties in Chattanooga is expected to maintain its upward trajectory.
