There are several factors contributing to the increase in home equity in Manchester. First, the market for homes in Manchester has remained strong despite economic challenges elsewhere. Second, there is a large number of families who have taken advantage of low interest rates to refinance their homes or purchase new homes since the market peaked in 2007. Finally, many homeowners have been able to tap into their home equity to finance other needs such as renovations or new purchases.

Despite these positive trends, there are some risks associated with high levels of home equity. If interest rates rise or if the market for housing dries up, many homeowners could find themselves facing significant financial difficulties. Additionally, if a homeowner loses his or her job or becomes ill, access to home equity could be difficult or impossible to obtain.
