Aug 12 - Washington, AP - "Home prices rise but may fall back" - reports that 2/3 of US housing markets show price increases attributed mostly to spring incentives. It continues that the boost faded shortly after the expiration of the tax credit late April.

 Aug 13- Washington, AP - "Mortgage rates hit record low" - relates at 4.44 % 30-year fixed rate this week.  The item further relates that the low rates are a weak stimulation to the lagging market.  It observes that investors are shifting away from stocks into safer Treasury Bonds, which in turns drives bond yields lower.

All-in-all, this has been a slow news week in the San Joaquin County.  The quiet before the storm?

Hi Jack, Hopefully those mortgage rates hitting record lows will keep the market flowing smoothly. Only time will tell.

Sandy - we can only hope - and we can hope too for consistent media information, there is enough to confuse the consumer without adding conflicting reporting.  Thanks for stopping by.

Jack: That's a high percentage of REOs. We can't get that kind of breakdown here.

Matt:  Thanks for stopping by.  I extract the data from the local paper which produces a list of addresses, sellers, buyers and price.  It comes out on a semi-regular basis about a month behind current date.  I then report on the data in a way that may be useful to agents in the community.  The public too, then gets a chance to see the impact of foreclosures on the market.  The news reports are a summary of the clipping taken from the local press on a daily basis....which I keep for 60 days.  It is surprising the number of "turn-arounds" that happen in 2 months.
