Indio California sales and pendings February 2008

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Realty

I did a search and came up with some interesting statistics.  In what the media calls a dead market, sales are strong.  Of the 134 homes going into contract or sold last month, almost a third of those did so after being on the market under 30 days.

What does this mean for the buyer?

  • Prices are in the range of many more buyers now.
  • Lower prices can mean lower down payments, closing costs and taxes.
  • Banks are loosening up their criteria to create new loans.
  • Properly priced homes are selling.  The home you like today may be gone soon.  The days of sitting and waiting are slowly going away.
  • The time to start looking is now, while prices are low.
  • Interest rates are still affordable. 

If you have any questions about homes available in our market today, please feel free to give me a call or send me an e-mail.  I love working with buyers to help them achieve their dreams of owning a home!

Mark- That's good to know.  I have a friend that has just listed some property in Indio.....I'm helping her with her Marketing, and this info is encouraging.  I'm glad you posted this, as the media sure has people believing no one is buying.
