Houston County Georgia FORECLOSURE Price Point Statistics - August 2011

Slowly over the past several months, the number of active Foreclosures in Houston County GA has been dropping.  Currently at 88 active listings, that's the lowest total I have seen in quite some time. 

What can consumers interested in Houston County GA Foreclosures expect if they venture into this market?  Most of the inventory sits below $100K, which is perfect for first-time buyers or investors.  As expected, these properties are sitting on the market for roughly half the time of traditional homes...going home to "think about it" could cost you the property. 

The early bird definitely gets the best deal in the Houston County Foreclosure Market

Anita, I love to see the foreclosure numbers dropping and more people keeping their homes.  Hopefully the trends continue in the decreasing direction.

Anita, it is interesting because the banks in the northeast are starting to again release the foreclosures to the market they have been sitting on...many are going to auction and being bought up prior to reaching a realtor as the banks want to keep more dollars in their pocket.

Home buyers and real estate investors are still finding bargains in the inventory of lender owned foreclosures.

I hope you are having a great week.  Be sure to have your camera in hand for those special moments.

Anita, It's good to see your foreclosure market in Houston County GA moving that inventory. 60 days on the market is truly a great sign for recovery in your market area too.

Agreed BLiz.  I hate the idea of people losing their home. 

Not surprising in the least Ginny.

Me too Rob, me too. ;-)

Having a very busy week thus far Roy.  I hope yours has started well too.

That would be great news Toni.  Especially for those areas in the U.S. that were hit heavily.

Thanks Cathy...playing around a little.

Jerry: It is a good sign...would love to see the numbers under 30 days though.

They better not wait Larry/Sheila!

It's good for everyone...thanks for the comments Joni.

Eighty-eight homes mostly under 100K is perfect for first time home buyers in my area and sounds like your area too.  Great that the number of foreclosures is dropping.  :)  Good information.

Thanks Judi...would love to see the number under 50 by the end of the year.

No better time to get in the market Rebecca.  Plenty of inventory and low interest rates.

I REALLY LOVE this one!  I bet we have less than one month of inventory in our under $100K category because those things get snatched up like hotcakes!

Great idea Anita!

Anita - great news that foreclosures are down in Houston County, Georgia (for so many reasons). Sounds like this is the perfect time to get off the fence and buy while interest rates are lower than ever and there are a lot of choices!  Hope this trend continues and spreads to other areas as well.

Thanks Renee...I just noticed I didn't expand the 2nd row down far enough to show the entire header (sales price to list price). 

I hope it spreads too Kristine.  So many areas have been hit really hard.
