5 New Bank Owned Homes in the Big Bear Area.

I preview all 5 of these homes this week.

• 41770 Tanager is in a nice location with easy access to the grocery stores, restaurants, and ski slopes. It was built in 1977, and the interior still feels that age. Lots of square footage, and a large lot make this home an appealing choice for buyers looking for a deal. At the list price this home is $116 a square foot in Big Bear Lake East.
• 843 Orange sits in a beautiful location in Sugarloaf. This home has recent upgrades and is steps to the National Forest. The home needs a little TLC, but with 2580 sq ft for only $229,900, it is priced at only $89 per foot.
• 508 Kean is a great find. This home sits high on the hill and has tree top views. The 2 car detached garage is oversized. The homes has 2 bedrooms, but the downstairs den could be split to allow for an additions bedroom space if desired. I don’t expect this one to last long. I sold this home to the previous owner for $310,000 in May of 2007.
• 42736 Peregrine is in lower Moonridge near the base of Bear Mountain Ski area and the Bear Mountain Golf Course. This home is a cosmetic fixer.
• 1340 Shay is a rare find for buyers looking for a low priced bank owned with a nice size lot. Carpet, small improvements, and some sweat equity could pay off big with this opportunity home.

If you would like to discuss Big Bear Real Estate, or schedule a showing for any of these homes, please give me a call.

Thanks!

If Your Going To Sell, I Wouldn’t Wait For The Market….

I was at this same meeting yesterday with Tyler. Even though this isn’t a positive message, I think it is important for sellers to hear. Thanks Tyler!

Something that I also heard from Leslie Appleton Young (Chief Economist for CAR) is that over 50% of the homes that sold in California last year had multiple offers. This is important to understand as a buyer, great deals are not found by only one buyer.

$18,000 IN COMBINED HOMEBUYER TAX CREDITS FOR A LIMITED TIME

Californians have a brief window of opportunity to receive up to $18,000 in combined federal and state homebuyer tax credits.  To take advantage of both tax credits, a first-time homebuyer must enter into a purchase contract for a principal residence before May 1, 2010, and close escrow between May 1, 2010 and June 30, 2010, inclusive.  Buyers who are not first-time homebuyers may use the same timeframes to receive up to $16,500 in combined tax credits if they are long-time residents of their existing homes as permitted under federal law, and they purchase properties that have never been previously occupied as provided under California law.
Under the federal law slated to soon expire, a first-time homebuyer may receive up to $8,000 in tax credits, and a long-time resident may receive up to $6,500, for certain purchase contracts entered into by April 30, 2010 that close escrow by June 30, 2010.  Additionally, under a newly enacted California law, a homebuyer may receive up to $10,000 in tax credits as a first-time homebuyer or buyer of a property that has never been occupied.  The new California law applies to certain purchases that close escrow on or after May 1, 2010 (see Cal. Rev. & Tax Code section 17059.1(a)(4)).  California law generally allows buyers of never-occupied properties to reserve their credits before closing escrow, but buyers seeking to combine the federal and state tax credits will not be able to satisfy the timing requirements for such reservations (see Cal. Rev. & Tax Code section 17059.1(c)(1)(A)).  Other terms and restrictions apply to both tax credits.
For more information, C.A.R. offers a Homebuyer Tax Credit Chart with a side-by-side summary of the federal and California laws.  C.A.R. also offers a legal article entitled Homebuyer Tax Credit Update.

16 Homes Sold this Week in Big Bear 3/20/2010

Click here to see the details for these homes.

• 9 of these homes (56%) were bank owned foreclosures, with average days on the market of 63.
• 4 of these homes (25%) were short sales, with average days on the market of 292.
• 2 of these homes (12.5%) were traditional sellers, with average days on the market of 67.

The ratio of closed short sales is the highest that I have seen this week. I don’t think this is a sign of things to come, just a coincidence….

Price differential is still holding high at 99.82% of list price. Overpriced properties are not selling. If you are a seller in this market, your list price is the most important thing that your agent provides to you. Don’t make the mistake of interviewing multiple agents and selecting the agent with the highest price, or lowest commission.
