El mercado inmobiliario de El Paso comienza a favorecer a los compradores

Después de años de un mercado inmobiliario extremadamente competitivo, se observa un cambio en El Paso y otras áreas del 'Cinturón del Sol', donde los compradores están comenzando a ganar terreno. A nivel nacional, el inventario de viviendas sin vender alcanzó 4.4 meses en abril, lo que indica un aumento del 5.8% respecto al mes anterior. Este cambio se debe en parte a un aumento en la construcción de viviendas y un enfriamiento de la demanda.
