The Worst Year of Your Life?

Carlsbad Real Estate - San Diego Real EstateAs a San Deigo real estate agent, there is just no way to really prepare a client for something that can be the longest, most frustrating process they have ever experienced!

First let me tell you what a short sale is.  To put it most simply – a short sale is a lender allowing a property to be sold for less than is owed on it (due to a lower property value).  The home owner has normally missed a payment or two, and negotiates with the bank to sell the home for less than is owed to avoid a full foreclosure.

May 2009 – Del Mar Real Estate – Del Mar Homes For Sale – Del Mar Market Statistics – 92014

Categories: Buyers, Del Mar, Market Trends, Sellers

These April and May Del Mar real estate statistics track the month over month Del Mar real estate – sales price vs. listing price, the price per square foot, and the days on the market.  The things that really should catch a Del Mar home buyer’s attention is the selling price vs. listing price on Del Mar properties under $400,000.  In both months, these Del Mar homes were in escrow in less than 10 days - one Del Mar home had an accepted offer on its first day on the market!  Also, you will see that these homes sold for MORE than the original asking price.  This Del Mar home fact reinforces what we have been telling clients – well priced homes are selling – FAST, and if we find one of these great real estate values, we have to be ready to move quickly.
