Today I'd like to talk to you about the short sale process.

 Right now we are experiencing a resurgence of short sales. Ten years ago, people were offered a loan modification in order to avoid a short sale, so we haven't seen as many short sales in the past few years. 

 

Now those low payments are coming to an end, and many homeowners can no longer afford their mortgage payments. Their homes are still underwater, so they are opting for short sales now.

If you are considering a short sale, or just have questions about the short sale process, give me a call or send me an email. I'd be happy to help you.

How to Sell Your Home Using an Open House

Realtors have been using open houses to sell homes for a long time. It's an old-fashioned way to sell a home, and sometimes it can be rather ineffective. 

We have integrated technology with old school methods to improve the process of an open house. We put out around 15-20 signs for an open house, and we also mail postcards to the entire neighborhood for an exclusive viewing that begins before the public showing. 

On top of this, we have a system where our ISA's call everyone in the neighborhood to ensure that people know about it and show up. We like to create a buzz around the property, and we also use social media to do this by running ads on multiple platforms.

We really pride ourselves on the fact that we market our open houses aggressively. We employ a lot of agents at our open houses in order to trap as many leads as possible, because a lot of leads come in and out of the door, never to be seen again.

As always, please contact us if you're looking to buy or sell in the Temecula area!

Temecula Real Estate Market Update

Today I'm going to give you a brief overview of the real estate market here in Temecula and Murrieta. 

Overall, we're seeing a neutral market with good inventory levels and steady prices. This means that if you're looking to buy or sell, now is a good time to do so. 

I want to urge buyers to enter the market even more so than sellers because interest rates are currently below 4%, and they may not remain this low for much longer. If you buy a home with these low rates, it could save you thousands and thousands of dollars on your home loan. 

Another important thing to consider is that you'll need a good team of real estate professionals to get the best possible deal. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you need assistance buying or selling in the Inland Empire this summer!
