2010 at the Beach: Prices Down + Low Int. Rates + Perfect Timing heading into Summer = Great Values Now.
Buy at the bottom of the market and while Interest Rates are still low!!!
Prices down 25-30% from 2005 levels, plus Foreclosure and Opportunities. Good Level of 2009 Sales is establishing a bottom to the values.
TO RESEARCH: Simply pass along your interest and criteria (use of home, location, size, features, budget) and I will send and keep you informed of the best opportunities to consider.
Foreclosures: call/email for up to date list and to be registered for daily new property updates.
Short Sales: a short sale is defined as a sale in which the sales proceeds are insufficient to pay of the note / debt on the property. The closing requires the approval of the lender, who must be willing to take a loss. However, many banks are willing to do so, and homes can be purchased often at pennies on the dollar. I have closed short sales and can help you consider these opportunities.
