Just a short time ago there were many people flipping properties here in San Diego. The television show Flipping Out had an episode where Jeff Lewis took a loss on one of his homes he was flipping. The point of that story, to me, was that he wished he would have taken an earlier offer that was much higher. Even a professional in the real estate business can make mistakes and hang on too long. Mistakes will always be made and it’s what you do afterward that counts. I think Jeff Lewis cutting his losses and moving on was a great move that many can learn from.

I too have made some great investments in personal property and investment property. I have also made some bad ones. It’s part of the game. A football team can will the championship without winning every game. No one wins all the time and knowing that is very important if you are going through short selling your home or if your home has been foreclosed on. Get ready for the next game or home purchase. Work on your credit and start saving for your next home or condo. You’ll be ready to buy and lenders will be ready to lend before you know it. Make sure you’re in the game.

If a professional like Jeff Lewis can make a mistake and I have made mistakes and thousands of real estate agents have bought homes they either can’t afford anymore or are upside down $300,000 in, it shows that even people in the business are not immune to market conditions and no one has a real estate crystal ball. The days of flipping will be back one day and for those who love to flip it will be your market.

When you’re ready to buy or sell a home or condo in San Diego call Mike and Dawn Lewis.

San Diego Short Sales

What is a short sale?

Definition of a short sale is: When a homeowner owes more money to the lender through their mortgage on their home than what the home is worth. The mortgage holder or lender agrees to accept less money for the home than what the loan payoff is. In many cases lenders will accept an offer from a buyer represented by a real estate agent that is less then what the home was purchased for. This can be a better option for a homeowner than having the bank foreclose on the home.

There are many more fields that agents have to fill out when entering a new listing for sale in the San Diego MLS. Searches that were never before possible are now just a few clicks away. Although many real estate agents in San Diego have a search the MLS feature on their real estate web site and practically all of the homes that agents can see in the MLS so can the public there is a difference between the public’s view and the agents view. Of course there’s confidential information that the public won’t see that the agent will but also the fields that are searchable to the agent are far greater than what the public can have.

We have a great San Diego MLS search feature on our San Diego Real Estate Web Site.

It’s time once again for the Del Mar Fair or San Diego County Fair as it’s officially known. This San Diego tradition is well known to us San Diegans as a “can’t miss event” and our kids sure remind us of that. My daughter has already asked 10 times, can we go to the fair, can we go to the fair, and we just got back from a vacation to New York last night. The fair is at the beautiful Del Mar Fairgrounds in Del Mar and always runs just before Thoroughbred Horse Racing starts at Del Mar every year. This year was a little more congested, traffic wise, due to the 2008 U.S. Open in Torrey Pines which is a stones throw away from the Del Mar Fairgrounds.

This year the San Diego County Fair will run from June 14 to July 6. Hours for admission into the park are from 10:00 A.M. to 11:00 P.M. on Fridays and Saturdays and from 10:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. on Sunday thru Thursday. Admission price for the San Diego Fair is $12 for adults, $6 for ages 62 and older and children from 6–12 years old and FREE for children 5 and under. There is a 24 hour recorded message for San Diego County Fair Information at 1-858-793-5555.

There will be lots to do at the San Diego County Fair in 2008. Some of the traditional things to do will be; Games, Rides, Food, Entertainment, Booths, Animals and so much more. Some of the entertainment this year will be; BB King, Fergie, Sugarland, Little Big Town, Boston, KC and the Sunshine Band, and many more bands, singers and entertainers. If you live in San Diego I’ll see you there and if you’re visiting don’t miss this event.

The investors are back in San Diego. Gobbling up real estate in America’s Finest City – San Diego. I have noticed this increase for the past several months but lately it’s been darn right ridiculous how many investors are buying in San Diego. There are plenty of foreclosures and short sales in San Diego County including, North County Coastal, North County, Central San Diego, Central Coastal, East County and South Bay including Chula Vista. There are plenty of buyers going toe to toe with investors and they’re “duking it out” for the best properties at the best prices. If you have been thinking about moving to San Diego this is your opportunity.

If you would like a list of homes in areas of San Diego we can email them to you and you might just consider relocating to San Diego. The winters are harsh in many areas of the US and San Diego is a great place to be in winter. Our summers are mild and low humidity and a dream for back yard BBQ’s with little to no mosquitoes. I grew up back East, I know about mosquitoes, eating you alive when you’re trying to enjoy the outdoors. The investors are back. Are you ready to come back?

It’s a great week for golf in San Diego. Most weeks in San Diego are great for golf but this week is special because Tiger Woods is in town for the US Open at Torrey Pines. This is another one of my posts on why San Diego is such a great place to live. San Diego Golf Courses are some of the finest in the world and weather in San Diego is almost always perfect. I almost said, Always Perfect, but we do get rain on rare occasions. I know that Torrey Pines is many a pro golfer’s favorite golf course and I know why. The course is stunningly beautiful overlooking the Pacific Ocean surrounded by rare Torrey Pines – the only place they grow in the world.

Well I guess Tiger is back four from the leader, Justin Hicks. Sometimes I think he just likes to make things interesting. If you ever get a chance to visit Southern California make sure you stop by Torrey Pines Golf Course and Torrey Pines State Beach. It’s truly one of San Diego’s Gems. When you’re ready to move to San Diego we’re ready to help.
