Home Repo Tour Bus in San Diego

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

San Diego Real Estate Blog

Home Repo BusSan Diego Foreclosures
If you’re looking to buy a home or condo in San Diego or Chula Vista home repos meaning “foreclosures, bank owned homes or REO’s” there is a new interesting way to buy them. You can go on a Home Repo Tour Bus. Hmmmmm … I had to think about this for a while. Does this really work out in the best interest of the buyer? It’s hard to believe it could.

Let’s dissect this a little bit. Bob and Sue are going to buy a home in San Diego County and let’s just say they’re considering buying in the Chula Vista area. They can contact a Realtor who specializes in Chula Vista Real Estate and get one on one service or they can go on a Home Repo Tour Bus and compete for the same homes with 30 other people. What I’ve also noticed is that companies offering the Repo Bus option will show you mostly if not exclusively their REO listings and not all of the REO’s on the market. This means Bob and Sue are only seeing a small portion of what’s actually available. This can be very short sited for a buyer but the real estate repo bus companies love it.

So you jump on the repo bus and what you’ll see is that the nicer more desirable foreclosures are the ones that everyone wants to put offers in on. I wonder how that gets dealt with fairly. Bob and Sue now have to get the agent to submit their offer in with 5 other offers to the company that has the REO. Hmmmmmm…… Be careful. There is a better way… a much better way.Short Sale Help in San Diego

You should hire a local real estate expert to help you find a home one on one. They will dedicate the time to help you find the right home at the right price. They will also show you all of the foreclosures not just the ones they have for sale. Also there are many good deals that are short sales and just regular listing that you won’t ever see on a rep bus. Please take my advice don’t get crammed into a repo bus when you can have a professional one on one relationship with a real estate agent who is working for you and only you. It makes all the difference in the world!

San Diego Real Estate Bubble

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

San Diego Real Estate BubbleSan Diego Real Estate Blog

Real estate in San Diego has changed quite dramatically from a sellers market of just a few years ago to one of the best buyers markets in history. Foreclosures, Bank Owned, and REO’s are the things that home buying dreams are made of. This buyer’s dream market won’t last forever and if you’re considering buying in San Diego this could be the perfect time to jump in. This San Diego Real Estate Bubble can be great for first time home buyers!

San Diego was one of the first markets to slow down and feel the pain of a declining real estate market and will no doubt be one of the first ones out and on its way to recovery. In some of the price ranges of homes that are single family detached I’m starting to see a leveling off in prices. In certain price ranges there are bidding wars between buyers when the homes are priced well. I often get asked about San Diego real estate and about the question of value. I tell people that San Diego is one of the best places to own real estate and to call home and over the long term will hold its value very well. Let’s face it most people would love to call San Diego …. Home!

I would have to say that many areas of San Diego are not overpriced anymore. They might have hit bottom or close to it in specific price ranges especially first time home buyer price ranges. Many of the homes that are price in the $300,000 to $400,000 price ranges are moving fast when in good condition or priced to sell. Don’t miss out on this downturn in the San Diego Market – it could be the chance of a lifetime.

There are many foreclosures in Chula Vista and the supply will eventually trickle off in the upcoming years.
