Here is some great news for Tri-Citians, Yahoo says, “if you live in a city like Kennewick and own your own home, you can probably count on a rise in its value this year.”

Yahoo! reports that according to Vero Real Estate’s VeroForecast, there is a light at the end of the tunnel — at least for some. Using what it calls “advanced analytics and micro-market data,” the Santa Ana, California-based company says that smaller cities seem to be faring best with housing prices right now, a trend that should continue for the rest of 2011.

Citing data from December 2010 and projecting through December 2011, the report notes that “smaller metro markets with populations less than 250,000 make up the majority of the better appreciating markets.” 

5 Strongest U.S. Housing Markets: Dec. 2010-Dec. 2011 are:

San Diego, Calif. +3.5%
Kennewick, Wash. +3.4%
Pittsburgh, Pa. +2.7%
Fargo, N.D. +2.6%
Washington, D.C. +2.5%
