PENDING SALES DROP AS BREA SHORT SALES BEGIN TO CLEAR OUT There was a negligible change in the number of homes for sale in Brea California on a month to month basis, but when compared to one year earlier, Brea real estate listings rose 38%. Although listings have increased in Brea, an inventory shortage still exists, especially in the entry level price range of $500,000 and below, which continues to dwindle. Due to the lack of inventory, it remains a seller's market in Brea, California. Pending home sales fell 27% between August and September 2013, and more than 60% year over year. These drastic, double digit drops are a direct result of the recent, low inventory of real estate listings in Brea. There has also been a "clearing out" of pending short sales; in the past, short sales were a... 10/17/2013

BREA CA REAL ESTATE LISTINGS DECREASE IN AUGUST 2013 Unlike many surrounding north Orange County cities, Brea experienced a 9.1% drop in real estate listings on a month to month basis. However, there was a year over year increase in the number of homes for sale in Brea, California, of more than 31%. While listing figures rose in August 2013 and previous months, they remain well below average, and have left potential buyers with little to choose from. This is particularly true in the entry level price range of $500,000 and below. Pending home sales in Brea remained fairly neutral between July and August 2013, but posted a drop of 49.5% in the year to year figures. This is, of course, due to the dwindling real estate inventory in Brea, California. Pending real estate sales will continue t... 09/13/2013

REAL ESTATE LISTINGS UP BUT STILL VERY LOW INVENTORY IN BREA CA Brea, California real estate listings reached their highest level since May of last year, with a 19.5% month over month increase, and a jump of 30.9% year over year. It's important to note, however, that the number of homes for sale in Brea is still well below what is seen in a balanced market. At this point, there are still more buyers than sellers, which continues to cause bidding wars and upward movement in prices. In addition, distressed sales have decreased dramatically, leaving few bargains in the city of Brea. As expected, pending real estate sales fell in Brea, California between June and July 2013, and as compared to July of the previous year. Sans a substantial increase in the Brea real estate inventory, further d... 08/16/2013

MAJORITY OF BREA REAL ESTATE LISTINGS SELLING ABOVE LIST PRICE Real estate listings rose by 48.4% month over month, and by nearly 7% on a year to year basis. Although the number of homes for sale in Brea, California has increased, less than 4 dozen houses and condos are available for prospective buyers, leaving many with little to no options. This is especially true for first time home buyers, as there are still only 10 homes for sale in Brea, in the entry level price range of $500,000 and below. Pending real estate sales remained virtually unchanged, with a mere 3% drop between May and June 2013. However, there was a year over year decrease of more than 22%. The reason for this drop is unclear, but I suspect that it has to do with interest rates and housing prices, which have risen qui... 07/22/2013
