big bear: Big Bear Market Report November 2009 - 11/04/09 06:46 PM

 
A Monthly Review of the Big Bear Real Estate Market
Any story can be another story altogether. Many experts feel the U.S. economy has turned the corner due to positive indicators in the housing market. Overall residential construction supposedly jumped 23 percent (annual rate) last quarter, the first gain in nearly four years and the biggest since 1986. However, a separate report showed the sales of new homes unexpectedly tumbled in September, the first drop in over six months.  Recently, a panel of economists from across the country overwhelming agreed the   severe recession that started over two years ago … (1 comments)

A Monthly Review of the Big Bear Real Estate Market
 
Buyer activity in the Big Bear real estate market is showing signs of strengthening. Although typical for this time of year, both pending" and "closed" sales increased last month in nearly all sectors of our market. While land sales and commercial business    opportunity demand remain sub-normal, residential sales under $400,000 are the sector of the market that is getting the majority of attention. We are finding more and more sales coming from multiple bidders on bargain priced properties that push … (1 comments)

A Monthly Review of the Big Bear Real Estate Market
 July 2009
 
For the first time in 10 months, the median home price in Southern California did not decline. The result of combining record low interest rates and the sharp decline in overall sales have given some real estate "experts" an indication that we may be close to hitting bottom. As I've mentioned in previous reports, no one can predict the bottom until we are on our way up.There are just too many variables, especially with the current administrations illusion on capitalism.

As we "sell off" the future of our children we continue to enable all 545 policy makers (Government Representatives and Bureaucrats) to use our tax dollars (known as public funds) to protect bond-holders for their confidence in some of the most mismanaged  companies in our nation's history instead of allowing them to take losses that were clearly their own.
Most "career" Realtors from across the country are finally getting fed up with all the doom and gloom of daily … (1 comments)

 A Monthly Review of the Big Bear Real Estate Market

What's it going to take for buyers to understand that NOW is the right time to invest in property? Of course there are some buyers "sitting on the fence" for fear of losing their job (that's understandable). What is not understandable is why so many buyers remain on the fence from their fear of buying  before the market "hits bottom". Today we know values are down and bargains are to be made. We also know that    interest rates are currently … (0 comments)

We live in the wealthiest country in the world. While the media continues to focus on the unfortunate people losing their jobs, their homes, (their country), the fact is, there are others who still have lots of money to invest. And what better investment to make in today's "impending recession" than real estate?
As the "Boomers" begin to think about retirement in the coming years, they look at their options, mostly about where they see themselves … (0 comments)
