Cities with the most expensive homes in the Owensboro metro area

Purchasing a home is one of the most important investments there is. More than a place to live,
homeownership is an asset with the potential to tremendously rise in value. But with home prices reaching record heights, affordability
plays a huge role for buyers. High mortgage rates are also making monthly payments more expensive; as of May 4, the 30-year fixed mortgage rate sits at 6.39%.
The typical home value in the United States increased over the last year by 3% to $334,994.

Although home prices have inflated all across the U.S., there are some cities that command a higher price tag than others.
Location, size, age, and condition are all contributing factors to home value.
