The next 12 months will be the best time to invest in the U.S. housing market, according to a new report by Housing Predictor. The sub-prime loan melt down has produced a near record level of foreclosures, providing the highest number of lower priced homes in years in a majority of the nation’s real estate markets.

Eighteen states markets are appreciating, including Texas and New Mexico, which are the strongest appreciating states in the nation. Pending sales of homes in Albuquerque, New Mexico, selected as Housing Predictor’s top appreciating market in 2007 are rising.

Starts on the construction of new homes have declined as builders reduce inventories and prices to compensate for the market place. Housing Predictor forecasts that more than two million homes will be foreclosed in the U.S. in the next two and a half years, which will account for the highest number of foreclosures since the U.S. Savings and Loan Fraud scandal in the 1980’s.
