brokerage: The Pressure Cooker on Orange County California Real Estate! - 02/05/10 01:14 PM
 

Phew!  After four years of declining home sales, the numbers appear to be finally turning back upward, with closed sales and pending contracts at above-normal increases.  In particular, first-time buyers helped buoy the market by taking advantage of low prices and interest rates, as well as the $8,000 tax credit offered by the federal government.
At least for now, home prices remain attractively low, and mortgage payments as they relate to income are very comfortable.  All the information seems to point to the fact that home prices have actually overcorrected downward.  What does that mean?  It indicates that many … (0 comments)

brokerage: NOW THERE’S NO EXCUSE! - 01/22/10 02:23 AM

 
It's the best news in real estate since last year's First Time Home Buyers Tax Credit: an estimated $22 billion will pump into our economy as a result of the government not only extending the tax credit, but including current homeowners, too.
 
The existing $8,000 maximum credit stays in place for first-time buyers.  A "first-time" buyer is one who has not owned a home during the three years prior to the purchase.  However, repeat buyers who have lived in their home for five of the past eight years may also qualify for up to a $6,500 tax credit … (3 comments)
