Roseville is as desirable as ever - 05/25/09 03:50 PM
The communities within Roseville and Lincoln continue to be sought after by high end clientele.  Whether it is Sun-City or Cirby Hills, the beautifull properties that surround our Roseville office are a privilege to work for.  New development in Downtown Roseville with restaurants and a growing night life such as found at the Boxing Donkey Irish Pub is an indication Roseville wants to keep their residents at home in local establishments.  Qualified tenants are noticing and making the move to these communities.

Natomas rentals still performing well - 05/25/09 03:42 PM
The entire Natomas region is performing very well in May.  Despite the loss of tenant rights to use the Natomas Park Club House, the homes are still finding well qualified tenants.  Rents have suffered by a few percent in Natomas Park specifically though it is difficult to pin point whether the decrease in rents is due to the lack of Club access or the economy in general.  The bottom line remains the same:  know your market and distinguish your rental by pricing it properly--good tenants will find you.

Investors finding deals in North highlands and Antelope - 05/25/09 03:35 PM
I am receiving increased new account activity from these communities.  Investors are buying one and two properties at a time to rent up.  With such low values many of them are being purchased withcash deals and 15 day escrows--this allows our management company to aggressively market the home and place well qualified tenants in very short periods of time.  Many good deals are out there and even more willing, qualified tenants waiting to fill them.

Rental activity increasing up and down I80 corridor - 05/04/09 03:23 PM
Though some prospective tenants are taking advantage of the declining home values and low interest rates to purchase their own property, plenty more are submitting applications for rental communities in Natomas, Antelope and Roseville.  In two days at the end of April I managed to rent out six single family homes and 2 condos in these communities.  Our current inventory of occupied property continues to turn over as the warm summer months near and leases open up.  Our www.homepointe.comwebsite allows for us to calculate how many daily internet hits each property we market receives--the majority of properties receive 50+ inquiries a day.  As always--distinguish your property by pricing it properly.
