mortgage: November Tempe Real Estate Market Update - 11/25/09 04:37 PM
Last week I attended the Arizona 2010 Real Estate and Business Forecast. Elliot Pollack, Valley economist who has been providing Economic Forecasts for more than 25 years, presented valuable information for homeowners, buyers, sellers, and renters. There was also a panel of real estate experts from both residential and commercial specialties who essentially confirmed what Elliot Pollack reported.
The main message from the seminar was this:

mortgage: The Window of Opportunity is Starting to Close- Don’t Miss Out - 06/20/08 01:17 PM
Good News Numbers 
Sales for May are up 15% from April.  Pendings (properties under contract and closing in the next 30 days) are up and the total inventory has dropped for the fourth month in a row.  In fact, the numbers for May 2008 are almost exactly the same as they were in July of 2007, when there was a 10-month inventory of properties.  This was just before the "perfect storm", when mortgage companies stopped lending under the old rules.
