As you can see, the Big Bear Market is still softening. Only 44 deed recordings in January 2008, and 15 of those where vacant land. This is 32.8% of the 10 year average for January and 57% of last January's recordings. Currently there are 102 pending residential sales (escrows), and 26 vacant land pending sales. Since February 1st, we have had 23 residential closings and no vacant land sales.
Feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss the Big Bear Real Estate market.
