The economy is assumed to be the biggest factor impacting real estate appreciation. After all, there are several factors on a national level that influence your property's value: unemployment, interest rates, the stock market, and more. But the most important factors that decide your house's value are specific to the local Brentwood economy and housing market.

Location in a community - Proximity to jobs and schools also have a huge affect on all home buyers' choices. So when it comes to holding their value, these regions typically appreciate the best.

Recent sales - Your agent should provide you with figures on the recent real estate sales in the neighborhoods that you're interested in. You'll want to know average time on market, selling versus listing price and more.

Appreciation history - Have property prices increased or decreased over the past 5-10 years? Is the neighborhood thought of as desirable because of its location or affordability?

The local economy - Are local companies hiring? Have businesses moved into or away from an area? Is there a nice mix of job types in an area, or does it rely upon just one industry? Is the blend of commercial and residential development changing? Each of these elements plays a role.
