ORANGE CA REAL ESTATE SALES DOWN IN MAY 2013 Although the number of homes for sale in Orange, California reached its highest level since September of last year, active listing figures in May, 2013 were still down by more than 26% when compared to one year earlier. An increase in real estate listings is normal at this time of year, and given the recent surge in housing prices, I would expect to see a greater jump in inventory.  The atypical real estate activity leads me to believe that Orange homeowners are reluctant to take on new, or additional debt. Pending home sales fell nearly 10% on a month to month basis, and by 42% when comparing May, 2013 to year ago levels. Should inventory remain low, we can expect to see additional drops in pending real estate sales in Orange in the coming m... 06/25/2013

INCREASE IN HOME PRICES DUE TO DROP IN DISTRESSED LISTINGS The number of homes for sale in Orange, California dropped slightly on a month over month basis, and closed real estate sales moved upward. Year over year, distressed sales have plummeted in the city of Orange. This fact, combined with the ultra low inventory and the increasing, summer demand, continues to place upward pressure on home prices. In April 2013, the majority of real estate sales in Orange, California closed at or below the list price. Based on current, positive market conditions, it is safe to say that this was due to overly aggressive pricing.

First Steps to Avoiding Foreclosure   Facing foreclosure is not something that needs to be kept secret in today’s society.  Rather than being an exception to the norm, it seems as if it has become the norm.  With the economy in the state it has been in over the last several years, it is not a surprise that families have begun to miss mortgage payments due to loss of jobs, disability, accidents, family emergencies, overextension on credit cards, debt, or misinformation on the terms and rates of your mortgage.  So does this mean foreclosure is inevitable? Well, although some may want you to think so, foreclosure is not really a “black hole” that sucks in all individuals who are struggling with making their mortgage payments.  Instead, there are many options available to homeowners when fa... 04/10/2013
