Million Dollar Homes Selling For Massive Discounts | Real Estate Buying Opportunity

By
Real Estate Agent with COMPASS DRE# 01339266

Los Angeles RealtorCNNMoney.com has featured and article showing that Million Dollar Homes across the country are selling at massive discounts.

Several examples are given highlighting the deep discounts made to sell these luxury homes:

Palm Springs, California - A remodeled 5-Bed 5-Bath Mediterranean is being marketed at a 28% compared to prices seen a few years ago;

Las Vegas, Nevada - A repossessed 5-Bed home has been marked down a whopping 64% from it's previous Selling Price;

Scottsdale, Arizona - A 4400 sq ft Tuscan home has been marked down by 31%;

Norwalk, Connecticut - A custom-built 400- sq ft Colonial-style home has been reduced by 39%.

While these prices are unfavorable to Sellers, this environment must surely represent a unique buying opportunity for Buyers.

I certainly acknowledge that no-one can tell when the market will eventually improve (and I'm not convinced we've even seen the bottom as yet), I believe that Buyers that are interested in owning their home for the medium to longer term should take advantage of these great buying opportunities.

This is a very unique time for buyers, and these types of discounts open up the market a bit to people who wouldn't ordinarily be looking at homes like these.

Stewart, As usual you are on the right track. Wow what a time to buy. Anyone one want a small state in the midsouth region cheap?

Hi Stewart... the reality is that nobody will ever know when we have hit the low point of the market until we are on the rebound.  You can only identify the low point in hindsight!

Hey Steward,  It's very true that there are some steep discounts on home right now. And..trying to time the bottome is like chasing the stock market. My guess would be that on average, this is a great time to enter into the market..again- on average. By the way, thanks for your comment on my blog!

OPPORTUNITY street - that's the street on which we all live about NOW.

 

If you can take on a purchase, NOW is the opportune time.
