Give Us Your Opinion
The WBJ Daily Report Flash Poll seeks the votes and viewpoints of Central Massachusetts business leaders each week on a topic of importance. Please take a minute or two to read the question below and the details behind it, then cast your vote and add your opinion. The results will be announced in Thursday's edition of the WBJ Daily Report.
THIS WEEK'S QUESTION:
In June, the median sale price of a single-family home hit $276,000 in Worcester County and $395,000 statewide, continuing their upward trend. While the price of real estate is a sign of strong demand, rising costs can price people out of the market and/or leave them with less disposable income.
Are rising home prices good for your business?
Yes. Rising property values means people are putting a greater value on Central Massachusetts.
Yes. Higher demand means more money is put into our economy and businesses like ours.
No. Our business cannot afford to pay more to lure talented workers to such a high-expense region.
No. This bubble will burst and lead us back into a recession.
