So we are into fall with the cold weather just around the corner as Realtors in the high desert we tend to enjoy the coming of the chill.  Well enough about the weather, as real estate goes we are in a strange situation, very low inventory with increasing sales, but prices are not rising as they should.  It appears there is some pressure on the lending side as well and appraisers to be extra fussy these days. 

Right now is the best time to buy a home period.  Prices are heavily discounted from past years; interest rates are under 4%.

If you are looking to list your home with an established team that knows how to get top dollar give Janet a call.

What Should You Do If You Learn that a Forged and/or Fraudulent Deed Has Been Recorded Against Your Real Property? CONSUMER ALERT

A short sale is an effective alternative to foreclosures when keeping you home is no longer an option.  The bank wins something too, the homes remains occupied and helps to maintain stable communities, according to the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA).  And with the new Short Sales Timeline Requirements put out by Freddie & Fannie should be your first choice.
