Currently there are 146 Active listings in SoCal MLS for city of Brea CA and there are 43 homes listed as pending sale. At this time it is still a balanced market, but buyer friendly. Real Estate prices could suffer as there is limited supply of buyers. Due to 100% financing demise, it will be much harder for first time home buyers to enter into the market. Many banks are changing their guidelines on daily basis and future loans are going to be FICO driven. Still there are banks willing to lend 90-95 percent of property value if borrowers have FICO score higher than 680.
