San Diego Short Sale Homes

February 22nd, 2009

San Diego Short SalesSan Diego Real Estate Blog

Many people hear short sales and think “shorts for sale” these are not shorts for sale in San Diego. They are short sales or selling your home short of what is owed on it to the bank.

The San Diego MLS is filled with Short Sale Homes. Many buyers think that most of the homes for sale in San Diego Foreclosures or bank owned homes. The fact is that there are many more short sales in San Diego County than there are foreclosures. When buying a short sale home in San Diego there are many things that need to be taken into consideration. Things that you will need an experienced San Diego Short Sale Realtor to help you with. There are many reasons why a short sale home can be a better option over a bank owned home.

A short sale home is a home that is listed for sale and will sell for less money than what is owed by the homeowner to the bank or mortgage company. San Diego has many short sale homes on the market and will continue to through 2009, 2010, 2011 and maybe even further down the line. If the home doesn’t sell as a short sale it will in most cases become a foreclosure and will be taken back by the bank and become an REO or Real Estate Owned on the banks books. The banks will then sell this home or hire a San Diego REO Listing Agent to sell the home as a foreclosure.

Some of the benefits of buying a short sale home over an REO are that in many cases because the homeowner still owns the home the homes are in better condition. The homeowner wants their home sold before the bank forecloses on it and in most cases will have it well kept during the short sale process and in many cases be living in it. This is not always the case but it is more likely that a San Diego Short Sale is in better condition than a San Diego REO. The process for buying a short sale is usually much longer than buying a foreclosure. There is much more negotiation and bank processing time when purchasing a short sale.

List of San Diego Foreclosures

February 17th, 2009

San Diego Real Estate BlogList of San Diego Foreclosures

Do you want a list of San Diego Foreclosures? If so we can help you with that. There are thousands of foreclosures in San Diego County and the list changes every day. We thought about putting a daily San Diego foreclosure list together but then thought why not just give the San Diego foreclosure search tools to the buyers. That way a buyer looking for a foreclosure in San Diego or even the whole state of California can search foreclosures by zip code, price, size and any other possible search criteria.

This service costs us money but we feel that if a client wants to search for a foreclosure, why not give them the tools real estate experts use. Buyers then know how serious we are about helping them find a San Diego foreclosure by letting them use our expensive foreclosure analyzer tools for free. A list of foreclosures in San Diego is ineffective compared to how these tools can help you locate the perfect San Diego foreclosure. When you’re ready to buy a San Diego Foreclosure make sure you call us the San Diego Foreclosure Experts!

Home Bargains in San Diego County

January 29th, 2009

San Diego Real Estate Blog
San Diego Real Estate Bargains
This year should be a banner year for Real Estate bargains in San Diego County. Home and condos continue to drop in most areas of San Diego County. Some of the smaller homes in the lower end of the price range are starting to solidify in some San Diego areas. This parachute to the freefall is in the first time home buyer price ranges of $200,000 to $400,000 and is a sign of stabilization. Summer 2009 should be a clear indication on where the San Diego real estate market is and where it’s going.

The upper end homes in San Diego County are in continuous freefall in many areas of the county. I recently did a BPO in North County Coastal and found homes selling in the $1.3 Million range just a couple of years ago now in the $600 range. The inventory there still tells me there’s a lot more room to drop. Some areas have upper end homes that are bargains and that shouldn’t drop too much more. You just need to know where.

When you are ready to buy a bargain home or condo in San Diego make sure you contact us. We are the San Diego Real Estate Experts!

San Diego Had Their Share of 2.3 Million Foreclosure Filings in 2008

January 15th, 2009

San Diego Real Estate Blog

The foreclosure filings rose 81% nationwide in 2008 and 2.3 million homeowners received a foreclosure or auction notice in that year. The 2009 foreclosure filings should be as gloomy or even more gloomy than 2008. This data is from RealtyTrac Inc. and shows the dire reality of how many families are loosing their homes. There was 1 in every 54 households that received either a foreclosure or auction filing. 2009 should bring more bad news in the mail for many homeowners struggling to make their house payments. Many are just throwing up their hands and walking away. The economy now in a recession won’t help matters and with the unemployment rate on a sharp incline it will only fuel this foreclosure pattern.

Homeowners in San Diego have been hit with some of the highest foreclosure rates in the country. The past real estate boom in San Diego is now in complete coloration to theSan Diego Americas Finest City downturn that has San Diegans feeling blue. San Diego has always been known for the great weather and sunshine which is free. This is a bright side to the malaise that has gripped most areas of the country in that San Diego is a great place to live whether you own or rent. It is still truly Americas Finest City ….. it’s just a little more affordable. O.K. a lot more affordable.

Interest Rates Fall as Foreclosures Rise

December 4th, 2008

San Diego Real Estate Blog

Interest Rates have dropped to the lowest rates since January of this year. The average rate on a 30 Year Fixed Loan has dropped to 5.53%. In January of 2008 it was at Interest Rates Foreclosures San Diego5.48%. With low interest rates along with sharp discounts on housing prices this could be the right time to jump in and find a home for Christmas. This should be as big of a boom as when the market was climbing out of control but people are just concerned about where the market is going and where the economy is heading. The value of real estate is unprecedented in the San Diego area. Home prices have fallen to 2002 and below pricing in some areas of San Diego County. In Chula Vista, especially areas like EastLake which was voted best master planned community 10 years in a row is exceptional and a bargain right now. If you’ve ever wanted to live by the San Diego Beaches the San Diego Coastal areas are on their way to some great discounts in 2009.

In October 2008 there were 84,000 properties repossessed in the United States. More than 279,000 homes received some type of foreclosure related notice in October of 2008. By the end of the year it is expected that over 1,000,000 foreclosed homes will be on the market for sale in the United States. California is still in the top 10 of foreclosure states. These stats were from an MSNBC article on RealtyTrac data. With all the bailout legislation rolling out let’s hope that there is some help to keep people in their homes by new adjusted pricing and new more affordable loans.
