short sale: Se espera que el mercado de la vivienda de “un paso hacia delante” este año - 03/05/18 02:56 PM
Se espera que el mercado de la vivienda de “un paso hacia delante” este año   Igual que nuestros relojes este fin de semana en la mayor parte del país, ¡el mercado de la vivienda pronto “se adelantará”! Similar a la tensión de la primavera, la falta de inventario disponible para la venta en el mercado ahora es lo que está reteniendo el mercado.
 
Muchos vendedores potenciales creen que esperar hasta la primavera es para su beneficio, y tradicionalmente podría ser cierto.
La demanda de los compradores tiene cierta estacionalidad, la que por lo general baja en los meses del invierno especialmente … (2 comments)

short sale: Lack of Existing Home Inventory Slows Sales Heading into Fall - 09/22/17 07:22 AM
#TimeToSell #ChrisBJohnsonRealtor 
Your home is probably the biggest asset you own. This is why you should hire a professional to guide you through all your real estate transactions. My goal is to help 24 to 28 families each year either buy or sell a home.
Some Highlights: The National Association of Realtors (NAR) recently released their latest Existing Home Sales Report. First-time homebuyers made up 31% of all sales in August. Homes are selling quickly with 51% of homes on the market for less than a month. A limited supply continues to drive up prices for the 66th consecutive month.

short sale: Como la oferta y la demanda afecta el valor de bienes raíces - 09/08/17 09:55 AM
 
Algunos aspectos destacados: El concepto de la oferta & la demanda es simple. ¡El mejor momento para vender algo es cuando la oferta de ese artículo es baja & la demanda de ese artículo es alta! ¡Todo por debajo de una oferta de 6 meses es un mercado de los vendedores! ¡Nacionalmente, no ha habido una oferta de 6 meses de inventario desde agosto 2012! Los niveles de inventario difieren dependiendo de la zona del país y el rango de precio, así que reunámonos para discutir las condiciones exactas del mercado en nuestra área.

¡Oigan, propietarios de casa ‘millennials’! Puede ser tiempo para vender  10 10UTC agosto 10UTC 2017  For Sellers, Millennials, Move-Up Buyers   Contrario a lo que muchos creen, los ‘Millennials’ no son la generación de ‘inquilinos’. Los ‘Millennials’ compraron el mayor porcentaje (34 %) de las casas en los Estados Unidos, que cualquier otro grupo por edad en 2017 y el informe más reciente de la oficina del Censo muestra que la tasa de propietarios de vivienda entre los ‘Millennials’ esta finalmente en aumento.
 
Muchos ‘Millennials’ aprovecharon los precios después del desplome de la vivienda y el crédito tributario para los compradores de casa por primera vez y se convirtieron … (0 comments)

With all the turmoil going on with Zillow, it’s no wonder that some brokers are shutting down their listing feeds to these type of sites......
IF our MLS Boards decide to provide an MLS feed to Zillow/Trulia, they should charge an amount equal to the cost of running the Association with out charging any of it members (all of us). We are providing invaluable data to Zillow/Trulia. Without this data, Zillow and Trulia would have no value to the consumer.

short sale: 3 Reasons the Housing Market is NOT in a Bubble #ChrisBJohnsonRealtor - 05/11/17 03:33 PM
With housing prices appreciating at levels that far exceed historical norms, some are fearful that the market is heading for another bubble. To alleviate that fear, we just need to look back at the reasons that caused the bubble ten years ago.
Last decade, demand for housing was artificially propped up because mortgage lending standards were way too lenient. People that were not qualified to purchase were able to attain a mortgage anyway. Prices began to skyrocket. This increase in demand caused homebuilders in many markets to overbuild.
Eventually, the excess in new construction and the flooding of the market with … (1 comments)

short sale: Get All the Facts about PMI, #TimeToBuy #ChrisBJohnsonRealtor - 05/02/17 09:06 AM
When it comes to buying a home, whether it is your first time or your fifth, it is always important to know all the facts. With the large number of mortgage programs available that allow buyers to purchase a home with a down payment below 20%, you can never have too much information about Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI).
What is PMI? Freddie Mac defines PMI as:
“An insurance policy that protects the lender if you are unable to pay your mortgage. It's a monthly fee, rolled into your mortgage payment, that is required for all conforming, conventional loans that have down payments less than 20%.

short sale: Home Mortgages: Rates Up, Requirements Easing #ChrisBJohnsonRealtor - 04/14/17 08:25 AM
The media has extensively covered the rise in mortgage interest rates since last fall (from 3.42% last September to the current 4.1% according to Freddie Mac). However, a less covered aspect of the mortgage market is that requirements to get a mortgage have eased while rates have risen.
The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) quantifies the availability of mortgage credit each month with their Mortgage Credit Availability Index (MCAI). According to the MBA, the MCAI is:
“A summary measure which indicates the availability of mortgage credit at a point in time.”
The higher the index, the easier it is to get a mortgage. Here is a chart showing the MCAI over the … (0 comments)

short sale: Home Values-How A Moorpark Short Sale Helps Preserve Neighborhood Values - 04/30/14 11:00 AM
By Chris B Johnson, REALTOR®    
Moorpark CA – Yes, short sales actually help preserve home values in a neighborhood. Here is why.
Most people short sell their home while they are still living in the home. They are maintaining the home, mowing the yard, keeping the air conditioning on, etc.
Most bank owned properties are empty for 3-6 months, if not longer. No one maintains the home during that time period. Empty homes are easy targets for vandalism and thieves.

Real Estate Forecast, The Upside of a Restricted Market
By Chris B Johnson Realtor. Is there another Ventura County Real Estate bubble in our future? Certainly there has been a run-up in real estate prices since the collapse. But the general feeling among panelists at the American Enterprise Institute event in Washington was that the dim outlook for this year is not one that would encourage additional frothiness, ie, NO BUBBLE.
So what do this mean for home values in Moorpark, Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks, Newbury Park, Camarillo and the rest of Ventura County housing prices and where they may be headed? Let’s … (1 comments)
