HOW IS THE MARKET – Real Estate Market Update; January 2012 by Scott Palermo + Jim Sanak Comment (1)

 

The Coachella Valley continues to outperform the rest of the country with strong real estate sales figures.  Foreclosure listings rose nearly 6 percent when compared to 1 year ago.  This ended a 7 month trend of double digit declines.  This is not a surprise as lenders are finally resolving the paperwork and processing problems from a year ago due to the robo-signing issues.

 

Despite the increase in foreclosure activity, there are still fewer distressed sales of homes when compared to a year ago.  Most recent statistics show that 51% of the sales were Bank Owned or Short Sales.  This is DOWN 8% from a year ago.  What this means is distressed properties are beginning to comprise a smaller percent of our sales indicating our real estate market prices are slowly stabilizing. With the FED indicating interest rates will continue to be low until 2014, prices at decade level lows, and an extremely low inventory of existing homes (down approximately 50% from two years ago), our market is expected to continue to have strong sales figures.

Bargain hunters continue to scour our markets for great deals.  The Coachella Valley real estate market is bucking the downward trend in sales in a large number of other markets throughout the country. My message to each of you reading this today is: “NOW Is The Time to BUY!!!”

Now playing! by Scott Palermo + Jim Sanak Comment (1)
Palm Springs is always pretty wonderful in the winter, but it's just bustling right now. The Palm Springs International Film Festival is in full swing (January 5-18, 2010) and half of Hollywood is here. The town is rocking, restaurants and hotels are packed, screenings are sold out and there is a real buzz in this little village of fabulousness. Did you know that the Festival ranks in the Top Three Film Festivals in the WORLD?! True, right up there with Cannes and Sundance.

Palm Springs is home to a thriving film society with a year-round program of screenings and special events in addition to this month's Festival and the ever-popular "Shortfest" in June. To learn more, check out the Palm Springs International Film Society site at www.psfilmfest.org.

Meanwhile, as if things weren't lively enough, the real estate market in the Coachella Valley is on fire! Homes are selling very quickly and we're seeing more going into multiple offers. Buyers are moving on homes that are priced well and staged well, especially when the property is a great value for the neighborhood. The sales per month have been trending upward since May 2009. Based on our Windermere office meetings, we believe the Coachella Valley may be experiencing the beginning of a real estate recovery.

If a move in Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, La Quinta or Indian Wells is on your 2010 wish list, give us a call today at 760-567-1550. And remember, in real estate, knowledge is power!
