palo alto homes for sale: Why Sell Your Palo Alto Home in Nov/ December
- 11/04/12 01:02 AM
Many homeowners in Palo Alto feel that selling at the end of the year, during the holiday season is not a good idea. Traditional wisdom in Palo Alto real estate is: 1. The height of the selling season in Palo Alto is Feb-June so that is the best chance to make the most money. 2. There are not as many buyers at the end of the year since they are busy with holidays and family activities. 3. Life will be disrupted if they have to put their home on the market during the holidays. I am not going to dispute this … (1 comments)

There are many people living in Palo Alto who have been here for a long time and have a lot of equity in their homes. They may not have huge retirement income, but there is money in the value in their home if money is needed. The question is what is the best thing to do if a senior needs money? Sell, rent, reverse mortgage? There is no correct answer. Each option has pros and cons. The first thing to do would be to speak with an accountant or financial adviser to understand the tax consequences of the different options. I … (0 comments)
palo alto homes for sale: When is a Palo Alto Loan Approval Not Really an Approval
- 09/14/12 11:27 AM
I have been selling real estate Palo Alto and the the Silicon Valley for almost 18 years. I have seen a lot, but this last week was a new experience. I have a client buying a home in Palo Alto. They had a pre-approval letter, and 2 weeks ago got an approval from the bank for their loan. They were specifically told to remove their loan contingency and were given written confirmation of the terms of their loan. We were then told that loan docs would be ready last Fri. for a Tues close. Last Fri their were no loan docs, … (2 comments)
palo alto homes for sale: Inventory Changes in Palo Alto
- 06/18/12 12:42 PM
As many people know the inventory of homes for sale in Palo Alto has been at historic lows. For most of the year there were somewhere between 30 and 34 homes on the market at any given time. Today there are 54 and it has been running between 50 and 60 for the last few weeks. So what happened? Well, it seems to me what happened is that after 5 straight months of multiple offers and appreciating prices more owners decided they would sell their homes. I am sure more than a few decided that doing this at the time of … (0 comments)
A buyer's final walk through of the home they are purchasing in Palo Alto can be done anytime before closing. It is ideal if it can be done after the seller has moved out, but not essential, and sometimes that is not possible. The purpose of the walk through is to make sure the home is in a similar condition as when you made the offer. You want to make sure that nothing new has happened and that nothing new is broken. It is not a contingency of closing. So for example, if the stove has broken, you would … (1 comments)
If the offer you accept is higher than the market value of closed sales, not the ones that are pending and you know sold for $300,000 over asking, then you may run into issues if that offer is contingent on an appraisal. The appraisal will look at closed sales in the last 3-6 months, not rumors about the house around the corner.
