Home equity is an important part of many people's lives. Home equity allows homeowners to borrow against the value of their homes, which can provide them with money when they need it or help them pay down debt. In addition, home prices are an important indicator of overall economic health in a community. Higher home prices indicate that there is demand for housing in that area, and that businesses are doing well. Lower home prices may indicate that there is a shortage of housing or that the area has been hit hard by economic downturns.

According to data from Zillow, home values in Augusta have increased significantly over the past few years. Between January 1st, 2013 and December 31st, 2017 (the most recent data available), median home values in Augusta increased from $131,000 to $163,000 (+27%). This represents an increase of almost 50%. While this growth has slowed recently (since December 2017 median values have decreased by 2%), it remains high compared to other cities across America.

One reason for this strong growth may be Augusta's strong economy. According to Forbes magazine, Augusta ranks as one of America's "Best Cities for Business." Additionally, according to Moody's Analytics' 2018 report on metro areas across America with positive job growth rates*, Augusta ranked first out of 41 metro areas studied** with job growth rate above 2%. These factors likely contribute to higher demand for housing in Augusta than elsewhere in Georgia or nationwide.

While all communities experience fluctuations in home values over time (due to many factors including interest rates and market conditions), it appears that Augusta's market has remained relatively stable overall since 2013-2017*** . This suggests that there is strong demand for homes in this area – both currently and long term – which should continue to support healthy home equity values over time
