Pecos is one of the fastest-growing MSAs in the country. The population has increased by nearly 20% since 2010, and is projected to continue growing at a similar rate for the foreseeable future. This population growth is largely driven by people moving to Pecos for work. The city has seen a boom in the oil and gas industry in recent years, which has created thousands of new jobs. In addition, Pecos is home to several major employers, such as Walmart and Lowe’s.
The strong job market in Pecos has led to an increase in demand for housing. This demand has been met with a corresponding increase in construction of new homes and apartments. As a result, prices for both rental and purchase properties have been rising steadily over the past few years.
Interest rates also play a role in real estate trends. Low interest rates make it cheaper to borrow money for a mortgage, which increases demand for homes and drives up prices. Currently, interest rates are at historic lows, which is one of the reasons why prices have been rising so rapidly in recent years.
