ashland homes: Real Estate Inventory in Ashland Medford area is Down ...way Down - 03/15/12 07:31 AM
Current stats released from the RVAR/SOMLS show that the number of homes on the market is under 1200 units.  Wow that is a drop from about 1600 homes from the prior report!!!  and from the high inventory days of 4000 units of 2008.....the number of units is soooo much lower which would normally be a good thing for sellers, but since most of the homes on the market in the Ashland, Medford area are distressed, prices are not up yet.

ashland homes: When will the Real Estate Market in Ashland and Medford recover? - 10/27/11 11:34 AM
I predict in two to three years!  why?
1.  There have been numerous home owners that lost their home in the last few years either by short sale or foreclosure.
2.  Most of these folks liked being home owners rather than renters.
3.  FHA and FNMA are "saying" that 2 to 3 years after a distress sale, a person may be able to buy again.
4.  Most of the people I talk to while they go through their distress sale ask me "how soon before I can buy a home again?"
5.  Most of the distressed sales have already occurred.  Yes, … (1 comments)

ashland homes: The Old Name, the New Picture - 09/12/11 09:26 AM
Well, it was time to go back to my maiden name due to life changes, namely divorce.  So consequently, I need to order new business cards.  Not a big deal until I realized, it is about time to get a new picture.  There should be a rule that no more than 10 years can pass before you MUST order a new picture.  It has not been 10 years, but it is pretty darn close to being that long.
The thing about photos of yourself is you can get used to them and no longer freak out when you see them.  You … (8 comments)

ashland homes: Why should I buy a home in Ashland or Medford now if Prices continue to Fall? - 04/27/11 08:59 AM
The cost to purchase is just one of the reasons you buy a home in the Ashland, Medford area.   Interest rate is another factor and in fact having a lower interest rate can be more important over 30 years than the price to purchase.  FNMA, NAR, and Mortgage Bankers Ass. are all projecting mortgage interest rate increases int eh the next several quarters.
The four biggest reaons people buy a home have nothing to do with money.
1.  Stable place to raise kids
2.  A place to feel safe
3.  Plenty of living space
4. Control over their living space.
