According to RealtyTrac, the nation's largest database of current real estate data, the current decline of interest rates combined with the continued drop in real estate values has made 2011 a great year to consider investing in real estate if you can. For those considering investing in real estate, the National Association of Realtors forecasts a decline from 5.8% to 4.9% of vacancy rates during the first quarter of 2012.
