San Diego County home sales for August 2010

There were 3,110 homes sold in August 2010 in San Diego County, up 1.4% from July 2010, down 6.2% from August 2009, but virtually the same as August 2008 (3,148). Sales reached a low of 1,826 in January 2008 but have been steadily increasing year over year since then, with only a few bumps in the road here and there, which experts blame on various tax credits and seasonal declines.

If your intent is to live in your home, raise your family there, and perhaps even retire there, it's always a great time to buy, but especially so right now with interest rates still at record lows and before home prices increase so far that your dream home is out of reach.

If you've been sitting on the fence, climb on down and give me a call! I can help you find your new home, and if you don't have a lender to work with, I'll help you find a good lender, too! I know several!

Jim ~ Great information and I like your graph.. It looks like time for a tutorial... hint hint......   I am glad to see that sales are up... and I agree that with the interest rates being historically low, for many people it is time to get off the fence.

Thanks to everyone for stopping by and commenting. Comments are greatly appreciated!

I'm trying to follow up on these older posts like this one to see if anyone had any questions or if I really need to respond to anyone's comments.

I will read all the comments and respond to any that need a response, but rather than making comments here in my post to each and every one of you, I'll just let everyone know that I have read all the comments and if there are any questions, I'll answer those in comments below this one. Otherwise I'll simply post this comment and then head over to your blogs soon to visit and do some reading and commenting. I hope you'll have a nice welcome mat out for me!

Don't forget to let your cat come out to play with all the other ActiveRain kitties. Your cat-friendly dogs can come, too! At the end of the 2010, which is the Chinese Year of the Tiger, I'm going to put together a slide show or an eBook of all the ActiveRain kitties. If you see any stray cats roaming around ActiveRain, gather them up and bring them over to our forever home right here! The more the merrier!

Also, if you need a great cat book, get yourself a copy of Peg Silloway's The Cat Lover's Book of Days. It has great pictures and cat trivia, and you can use it year after year since it only has dates but not years.

Best wishes to everyone for a great Fall!
